The rapid growth of modern technologies has significantly changed the way how linguistic research is carried out and language resource is collected across the world. In Uzbekistan, technological advancement has played an important role in the creation, expansion, and application of Uzbek language corpora. This article examines how computational tools, artificial intelligence, natural language processing (NLP), and digital platforms contribute to the development of Uzbek corpora. The study explores the historical development of Uzbek corpora, technological innovations supporting corpus linguistics, and the challenges faced in corpus creation. The findings indicate that technology has improved data collection, annotation, accessibility, and linguistic analysis while also promoting educational and research opportunities for the Uzbek language. However, limitations such as insufficient digitized texts, orthographic variations, and lack of advanced NLP tools remain obstacles. The article concludes that continued technological investment and collaboration among linguists, programmers, and educational institutions are essential for the future development of Uzbek corpora.
