russia will use artificial intelligence for forced mobilization of citizens

The Moscow authorities are planning to deploy a platform for centralized collection and analysis of video data from surveillance cameras across Russia. The relevant state contract was published by the Department of Information Technology. According to the document, the government of the terrorist country intends to upgrade the unified data center (UDC), which will be used to run the face recognition algorithm. The dubious modernization will allow remote regions of the country to transmit video from street cameras to the capital’s data center for further processing.

«No one entity has enough money, a large data center for data storage, and a centralized solution for video analytics, and Moscow has all of this,» the developers working for the occupier boast.

The official version of this «innovation» is that it will make the search for criminals more efficient. However, all the facts indicate that the dictatorial regime plans to search for those Russians who evade mobilization and do not want to go to war in Ukraine.

The developers note that the technology can be connected to an unlimited number of databases and cameras. However, «significant expansion will require additional capacity,» and it is yet to be found. The contract for the development of algorithms is worth 43.3 million rubles. The occupation authorities have instructed to complete the work by December 16, 2022.

As a reminder, all the largest cryptocurrency platforms in the EU are no longer cooperating with the terrorist country — the next, eighth package of sanctions from the European Parliament has been introduced. Russian citizens will not be able to store digital assets in the EU regardless of the amount on their cryptocurrency wallet, and the occupying country will lose more than 7 billion euros. Thus, on October 8, the LocalBitcoins project announced that citizens of the terrorist state would no longer be able to use the service, and the Blockchain.com platform gave Russians the opportunity to withdraw their deposits until October 27, after which it would block their accounts. Cryptocurrency exchanges Coinbase and BitMEX also comply with the sanctions, while Binance has not yet announced the termination of relations with Russian clients.
