Russian President’s spokesman Dmitry Peskov weighed in on plans to regulate artificial intelligence processes that some countries are already considering, including China. He noted that this field needs modernization because the use and development of technologies are advancing rapidly at the state level and in the private sector. Peskov stressed that regulation is a natural step as AI becomes more embedded in daily life and economic activity, but he warned against stifling progress. Regulation should guide development rather than halt it, ensuring safety and accountability without blocking innovation. (Source: Kremlin press service)
According to Peskov, regulation will touch every facet of society as AI tools expand in scope. He argued that rules are inevitable and necessary to manage risks, but they should be crafted to avoid slowing down beneficial advancements. The aim is to streamline governance without suppressing the momentum of technology or the opportunities it creates for citizens and businesses. (Source: Kremlin press briefing)
In parallel, a pre free generative model developed by Sberbank, Kandinsky 2.1, has emerged as one of the fastest growing AI services in the world. This family of neural networks demonstrates how major institutions are investing in domestic AI capabilities to compete on a global stage. Kandinsky 2.1 represents the push toward more capable and accessible AI tools that can assist in industry, science, and everyday problem solving. (Source: Sberbank research release)
There is also a notable note about naming and perception of this technology. Allegations that Kandinsky 2.1 might be named after historical figures or brands reflect the broader debate about branding, identity, and the competitive landscape of AI products. The trajectory of such tools is influenced by market dynamics, user needs, and the evolving expectations around how AI should be integrated into society. The ongoing conversation about these tools touches on both opportunities for innovation and the importance of responsible deployment. (Source: industry analysis reports)
