Yanka Kupala State University of Grodno Student Tsimur Siuko – Silver Medalist at the III International Olympiad in Artificial Intelligence

The Belarusian national team made its debut at the III International Olympiad in Artificial Intelligence, which was held from August 2 to 8 in Astana, Kazakhstan. A silver medal was brought to the team's collection by Tsimur Siuko, a 1st-year student of the Faculty of Mathematics and Computer Science of Yanka Kupala State University of Grodno.

Tsimur, a recent graduate of Gymnasium No. 1 named after Academician E.F. Karski, joined the national team alongside three school students.

It is worth noting that the path to success began long before the final. First, the young man passed the regional selection, then the republican stage, where the composition of the national team was determined. "Half of the tasks were unfamiliar to me," Tsimur admits. "But that was precisely the main challenge. I had to figure things out on the fly, look for unconventional approaches and test my hypotheses."

According to the first-year student, the preparation and participation themselves became an invaluable experience for him. "To be honest, everything was held together by enthusiasm – both mine and that of our mentors. We were not afraid to try new things, learn from our rivals, and step outside the familiar. It was a great period that gave me much more than just an award," the first-year student shares his impressions.

The debut performance of the Belarusian team at such a prestigious international arena ended successfully, which became a vivid testament to the high level of youth training in the field of artificial intelligence.

We congratulate Tsimur and wish him new victories on the path to great discoveries!
