MOSCOW, October 7 - RIA Novosti. Employees of the Russian Presidential Administration use all available technologies in their work, including Sberbank’s GigaChat, said Deputy Head of the Presidential Administration Maxim Oreshkin at the Digital Solutions forum.

Last week, Russian President Vladimir Putin joked when asked whether he uses neural networks, saying that he uses the presidential administration, which uses everything that humanity has come up with.

“If we talk about what we use, then, of course, we use everything that is available, GigaChat and everything else,” Oreshkin said, answering a question about what technologies the presidential administration employees use.

At the same time, he emphasized that technology helps to be better, but the most important thing is “not to lose the person” behind the numbers and reports.

GigaChat is a multimodal neural network model developed by Sberbank. She is capable of performing various tasks such as creating images, answering factual questions, following instructions, and much more. GigaChat can work as a standalone assistant or integrate with other applications and services.
