Igor Dusha, director of the product portfolio of the domestic software vendor NOTA (part of the T1 holding), noted that legislative norms for information protection already exist in Russia: their development and subsequent monitoring of their compliance are handled by two agencies at once - FSTEC and the Federal Security Service (FSB).

According to him, the colombia whatsapp number database issue of general ethics, rules and regulations for AI regulation is within the competence of the Ministry of Digital Development, but if there are requirements and rules for the protection of information, including personal data, this will become the area of ​​competence of the FSTEC of Russia - that is, the functions are clearly divided and are unlikely to be narrowed in any way.

The FSTEC press service did not respond to ComNews’ request.

"General standards for the use of AI and obligations should apply to all companies, not just government ones, as there should be general rules that govern the use of AI. Some requirements for the use of AI for specific tasks, such as data depersonalization, may apply to those organizations that work with personal data," says Igor Dusha.

"The rules for protecting information should apply to absolutely all organizations without exception that collect and process data. It is desirable that both commercial and state-owned companies and non-profit organizations comply with a set of rules for working with data, especially personal and biometric data. It is necessary to formulate proposals for every resident of the country so that they want to share data, both with the state and with companies," says Ani Aslanyan, founder of the Telegram channel "Blockchain.rf".

According to her, these proposals should contain both safe handling of data and a financial and motivational part: in the age of AI development, a person needs to receive additional income not in the form of bonuses, which are not particularly needed, but in the form of real money, competitive with what a person can earn; in this case, society will begin to share data more willingly, but on condition that security rules are observed.

The Center's director explained what domestic organizations are proposing.

"The report of the UN Council on Artificial Intelligence is ready and published in an interim version. So far, this document does not contain anything breakthrough and is aimed at applied AI technologies. We are holding consultations on what the position of Russian organizations will be," said Andrey Neznamov.

In the US, he said, there is a big roadmap with presidential instructions on what each of the executive branches should do with AI; China already has existing legislation to regulate AI; but on the international stage, the most interesting thing to watch is what is happening in Russia.
