This paper examines factors influencing artificial intelligence (AI) adoption in Uzbekistan’s textile enterprises using the technology–organization–environment (TOE) framework. The analysis highlights differences between favorable external incentives and internal readiness, particularly in human capital and data infrastructure. The paper suggests strengthening organizational readiness and applying the AI-TII composite index to assess AI integration and inform targeted support measures.Keywords
