Today, leading Russian scientists are increasingly calling for the sovereignty of technologies and tight control over how they affect people.
The first sovereign neural network for the education sector will be introduced before the end of the current school year, said Minister Sergey Krabtsov. A large scientific team is working on the system, and before implementation it will go through a phase of approval and testing to ensure that only verified information is available.
The head of the department emphasized that the development is unique and has no analogues in the world. Krabtsov said: "This will be a secure network, safe for children, which we will recommend using in the educational process in addition to the traditional education system. There will be reliable and trustworthy information."
The priority of creating a secure neural network, including for children, was discussed by Ekaterina Lebedeva, an expert at the New Age Center for Human Development and Technology. She points out that now, faced with the threat of techno-humanism, Russia is, in fact, looking for an alternative, "third" way, based on its own subjectivity. "Without their own legal, value and technological framework, technologies can turn a person into an object of algorithmic observation and evaluation," warns an associate professor at RANEPA. "Therefore, the model should be based on digital sovereignty, protection of personal data, priority of human dignity and the inadmissibility of replacing civil subjectivity with a digital profile."
