How can generative AI reshape economies and empower creativity? In his recent interview with Delo, Kalin Dimtchev explains that AI is not a replacement for human ingenuity but a catalyst for innovation.
Generative AI is quickly emerging as a driving force behind creativity and digital transformation across industries. In a recent interview with Delo, Kalin Dimtchev – Microsoft’s Regional Director for the Adriatic – underscored the role of AI as a catalyst for innovation rather than a substitute for human ingenuity. As Dimtchev stated, “AI is not a replacement for human ingenuity but a catalyst for innovation.” By sparking new ideas and streamlining routine work, generative AI is helping individuals, organizations, and entire economies unlock greater potential.
The momentum is clear: Slovenia, for example, has seen an 84% increase in AI adoption within a single year, with investments in national AI platforms and supercomputing centers strengthening digital sovereignty. Experts suggest that generative AI could contribute up to €4 billion to the country’s GDP by 2035, but the real promise lies in creating new industries and opportunities for all.
