説明を展開
The Kratt AI Strategy was released by MEIT in 2019. "Kratt" is drawn from Estonian folklore — a humanoid servant fashioned from straw and discarded items, symbolising AI as a "tool that serves humans". Three pillars: (1) government AI adoption (including Bürokratt virtual assistant); (2) enterprise AI mentorship; (3) AI legal framework and talent. Supporting mechanism: an MEIT task force produced 30+ specific regulatory-amendment recommendations, including the world's first AI Agent legal definition. Assessment: Kratt Strategy is a template for "small-state AI strategy" — narrative-rich, infrastructure-reuse-driven, legislation-efficient. The leverage ratio (€10m AI budget yielding 50+ government use cases) far exceeds any other country in this benchmark set.
