About Code

Earlier on Tuesday, the AI Alliance and several other organizations signed the code of ethics of artificial intelligence (AI).

The Code will become part of the Artificial Intelligence federal project and the Strategy for the Development of the Information Society for 2017-2030.

It establishes general ethical principles and standards of conduct to guide those involved in activities using artificial intelligence.

The Code applies to relations involving ethical aspects of the creation (design, construction, piloting), implementation and use of AI technologies at all stages of the life cycle, which are currently not regulated by Russian law or other regulatory acts.
