The creation of an analogue of the IAEA for the field of artificial intelligence was considered unlikely

The creation of an artificial intelligence regulatory organization similar to the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) is unlikely due to the problem of controlling the spread of technology. Vadim Kozyulin, chief researcher at the Diplomatic Academy of the MGIMO University of the Russian Foreign Ministry, made this assessment in a commentary to Lente.ru.

“Calls for a comprehensive ban seem politically understandable, but require an answer to a practical question: how will verification be arranged? Technically, this is practically impossible,” the political scientist emphasized.

Kozyulin pointed out the difficulty of creating a mechanism for verifying and controlling the spread of AI technologies due to the potential degree of secrecy of advanced developments, as well as the large number of users of the product. The expert added that technologies are very often dual-use products, spread quickly and can be integrated into a large number of systems. In his opinion, the Pentagon’s position on this issue remains a significant factor, since the US military recognizes the difficulty of controlling AI given the rapid development of technology.
