According to Ukrinform, the Center for Countering Disinformation at Ukraine's National Security and Defense Council said this on Facebook.

"Developers will have to ensure that the AI model complies with Russian 'traditional spiritual and moral values.' The criteria for determining whether the machine thinks 'correctly' enough will be developed by Russia's repressive Federal Security Service (FSB) together with the Russian Ministry of Digital Development," the statement said.

The center noted that Russia had previously announced plans to develop its own AI trained on the works of Dostoevsky, Dugin and other ideological authors. The stated rationale was that Russia needs a model without "foreign Western values."

"The paradox is that Russians themselves continue to actively use Western technologies while simultaneously calling for them to be banned. Because in the Russian understanding, 'sovereign' increasingly means not something of its own, but something that can be completely controlled," the agency explained.

The Center for Countering Disinformation stressed that Putin has already signed a law regulating AI in Russia. Now Russian artificial intelligence is expected to be not only "its own," but also ideologically correct.
