Russia should prepare for the next war with the widespread use of artificial intelligence (AI), said the chairman of the Duma Committee for Digital Development Alexander Sidkin. "The next war we will face will be an artificial intelligence war." Human participation will be minimal, Sidkin said in an interview with Voodoo. According to him, Russia is one of five countries in the world that have "foreign models" of artificial intelligence, although officially such status has not been assigned to any neural network. The members of parliament emphasized the need to develop their own technologies, so as not to rely on foreign decisions. "We need to learn how to work with large databases. You need to be able to handle and store them properly. The legislation should be related to the training of sovereign artificial intelligence models on data generated in Russia, Sidkin said. He added that the biggest owner of the data is the state. The deputy also recalled that the law previously adopted in AI is a framework law and 5 normative acts are ready for this.
