Uzbekistan’s Octobank launches first fully neural network video news in region

11:19 - 5.12.2025


December 5, Fineko/abc.az. Uzbek bank Octobank has launched the first AI video news of its kind, created without participation of a film crew on the set. The content was completely generated using neural networks: from visual inserts and the presenter's avatar to the script, voiceover and editing compilation.

ABC.AZ reports that the video is dedicated to the TAF!25 festival, where Octobank acted as a general partner and presented its advanced solutions in the field of digital technologies and communications.

This is the first precedent in the region when a banking structure produces a report from an event without the physical presence of a journalist. This approach makes it possible to significantly reduce costs, quickly produce news materials and, most importantly, demonstrates the high level of technological maturity of the bank's PR infrastructure.

AI release with TAF!25 is part of the OCTOBANK AI-TV initiative, a video news project of the bank built entirely on generative technologies. The channel produces videos in Uzbek, Russian and English, covering topics from bank news to financial literacy tips.
