The government will determine the areas of use of only sovereign AI models

The Russian government will determine areas where only sovereign AI models will be used, we are talking about critical infrastructure, said Russian Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin.

“It is important that companies more actively switch to our domestic solutions. The choice, of course, is theirs. But in cases where critical infrastructure or other sensitive areas are involved, the government will determine when it is possible to use only sovereign or national fundamental models,” Mishustin said during the plenary session “Results. Opportunities. Prospects” of the Digital Solutions forum.

He noted that a transition period is provided so that enterprises and companies have the opportunity to prepare for their implementation.

“And it must be used to create conditions for long-term demand for domestic artificial intelligence services,” Mishustin added.
