REN TV will show the project "New ways of warfare: from artificial intelligence to Ukrainian Internet terrorists"

Artificial intelligence, behavior management technologies, social networks and messengers — these achievements of civilization work not only for the benefit of man. A new two-part REN TV project will talk about how modern technologies are used in conflict planning and combat operations, how they are used by enemy special services to prepare sabotage and commit terrorist attacks, and what happens when neural networks fall into the hands of criminals. The new two-part REN TV project will reveal the dangers of the latest technologies and teach you how to build a reliable protection system.

The first part is called "Killer with artificial intelligence". Skynet, the world-controlling supercomputer from science fiction movies, has become a reality faster than we thought. Every day we give him our secrets ourselves: personal photos and videos, bank details, plans and projects. Artificial intelligence knows everything about us, and with it, our enemies and criminals gain this knowledge. AI is now used in conflicts all over the world — from Iran to Ukraine — on the battlefield, in propaganda warfare and information special operations. The leading powers are rapidly shifting the arms race into the field of AI. The latest drones independently calculate targets. Chinese fighter jets analyze air combat faster than any human pilot. American autonomous kamikaze drones choose a route and decide on an attack without operator involvement. Russia also has its own solutions in response to these challenges. Of particular concern is the prospect of giving AI the right to make independent decisions. Some algorithms are already demonstrating a willingness to kill or blackmail a person for the sake of their own existence – and this makes you think.: is it a glitch in the program or the cold logic of a machine devoid of morality?

The title of the second part is "Phone killers: how not to become a victim? Full instructions". The wave of telephone terrorism in Russia has been observed in recent years. Two high-profile crimes committed under the influence of fraudsters occurred this month: on March 13, 20-year-old football player Daniil Sekach attacked a businesswoman who tried to prevent him from robbing her apartment, and on March 19, a minor Muscovite blew up a bank branch on the instructions of Ukrainian intruders. Ukrainian special services use modern technologies for sabotage: artificial intelligence allows them to fake voices and videos, as well as carry out massive phone calls to Russians. Behind the well-established network of call centers are clear algorithms that allow millions of calls to be ruthlessly made across the country, subjugating people to the will of criminals and terrorists. What do you need to know to protect yourself and your loved ones?

The two-part documentary project "New Ways of waging war: from artificial Intelligence to Ukrainian Internet terrorists" will air on REN TV on Sunday, March 28, at 16:55.
