The Ministry of Finance announced the need to introduce censorship for AI

The development of intelligent algorithms requires mandatory government control and strict filtering of responses to user requests. This was announced on April 13 by Alexander Shoitov, Deputy Minister of Digital Development of Russia, speaking at the AI: Trust Regime forum.

In his opinion, censorship of AI is justified, unlike similar practices against citizens.

"You can't censor people here, they have rights. But specifically artificial intelligence — it should have censorship at the entrance and exit, which prohibit certain requests and questions," RIA Novosti quoted Shoitov as saying.
