Abstract

Scientific and technical development of Russia does not stand still. In recent years, we have been talking about the use of artificial intelligence (AI) in all spheres of life in Russia, including politics. In his article, the author notes the stages the country has gone through in its desire to streamline and develop rules and laws for the use of AI in political management. The author aims to analyze the political and legal experience of Russia in relation to the use of artificial intelligence in domestic and foreign policy. The author comes to the conclusion that in recent years there has been an active development of the regulatory framework for the Russian Federation’s policy in the field of AI, there is a tendency to increase funding for projects in this area. Along with large Russian companies, government bodies at various levels are increasingly turning to AI technologies. And for example, if we talk about Russian diplomacy, AI technologies also bring certain benefits – the ability to analytically process a large array of information, simplifying the daily routine work of consular offices. It should also be noted that today Russia is already among the top ten leaders in the field of AI, but on this path our country still has a lot to do to strengthen and consolidate its position on the world stage, since leadership in the field of ICT and AI is a necessary element for the country to take a leading position in the world hierarchy.
