Russian President Vladimir Putin proposed to increase funding for projects and research in the field of machine learning technologies and artificial intelligence (AI) systems based on neural networks. With this statement, the head of state
βThis is indeed one of the key areas of technological development that determine and will continue to determine the future of the whole world. Artificial intelligence mechanisms provide real-time, fast, optimal decision making based on the analysis of gigantic amounts of information, the so-called "big data", which gives enormous advantages in quality and efficiency. I will add that such developments have no analogues in history in terms of their impact on the economy and labor productivity, on the effectiveness of management, education, healthcare and people's daily lives,β the Russian leader said, emphasizing that in addition to funding, the implementation of such projects requires and development of legal issues, accelerate the creation of advanced scientific infrastructure and build human resources.

I have already said and I want to repeat once again: if someone can ensure a monopoly in the field of artificial intelligence - well, the consequences are clear to all of us - he will become the ruler of the world, βsummed up the President of the Russian Federation, earlier
The fact that artificial intelligence is a bright trend in the IT market,
If we consider the market for artificial intelligence systems by sector, then the largest segment this year, according to IDC forecasts, will be retail - $ 5,9 billion. The banking sector is in second place with $ 5,6 billion. AI will spend $13,5 billion this year. Costs in the field of hardware solutions, primarily servers, will amount to $12,7 billion. In addition, companies around the world will continue to invest in related services. Over the next ten years, the most dynamic growth of the mentioned market is expected in North America, since this region is the center for the development of innovative technologies, production processes, infrastructure, disposable income, etc. As for Russia, in our country, transport and financial sector, industry and telecommunications. In the longer term, almost all sectors will be affected, including public administration and the system of international exchange of goods and services.
