Federal Government Bodies
The national strategy for the development of artificial intelligence is implemented through the efforts of federal executive authorities (FEAs). The President of the Russian Federation adjusts the objectives and goals of the strategy, a government commission coordinates the activities, and the FEAs implement the strategy. The FEAs include federal ministries, services, and agencies.
In total, AI will be implemented in 57 FEAs. In 2021, many FEAs carried out extensive work to introduce AI into their work; the leaders in this area were the Federal Tax Service, the Ministry of Emergency Situations, and the Federal State Statistics Service. At the end of November 2021, the leaders in digital transformation among regional FEAs stood out. These were the state authorities in Tula Region, Khanty-Mansi and Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous District.
In February 2022, regional state authorities together with the Ministry of Digital Development and the center of expertise for implementing the federal Artificial Intelligence project developed a roadmap for implementing artificial intelligence in 2022. According to it, regions have until the end of the year to collect anonymized data for AI training and select the best projects in this area.
By 2024, according to the AI development strategy, all FEAs without exception must approve changes to departmental digital transformation programs and implement measures to implement AI.
