The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine will use artificial intelligence to voice official statements
27.04.24The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine decided to develop the II-avatar “Victoria”, which will give comments instead of officials during television and radio broadcasts.
A special QR code will be added to the video, which will direct people to the official page of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs with the statement – this is done to avoid the spread of fakes.
The development of the avatar, which took about a month, was carried out by the public union Nazovni Tech in cooperation with the NGO The Game Changers. According to Roman Lansky, co-founder of the GovTech company Strimco, such work could cost $5-10 thousand (however, it was sponsored by partners, not the state).
According to the head of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Dmytro Kuleba, the department is already using AI to announce official addresses in French, Spanish, Portuguese and Arabic. In general, the Ukrainian Ministry of Foreign Affairs launched a comprehensive program for the introduction of artificial intelligence. We are also working on the development of a II simulator for training young Ukrainian diplomats.
