ReText.AI participated in a roundtable discussion on the topic "Art 2.0. Neuroartist. Projects Created by Neural Networks," which took place at Artplay Media in Moscow.

In the previous year, two revolutionary neural networks emerged, reshaping the perception of artificial intelligence in image generation: Midjourney and Stable Diffusion garnered significant attention with their creative capabilities. However, in November, the American company OpenAI released ChatGPT, the world's first fully-fledged generative neural network capable of writing code like an experienced developer or crafting a script for a book, akin to an experienced playwright.

In this race of technologies, Russia did not lag behind, introducing two outstanding projects in the field of neural networks earlier this year: YaLM by "Yandex" and Kandinsky by "Sberbank." "Yandex" also joined the race by presenting a new neural network with a unique ability to generate images based on text requests, and it was named "Masterroom."

These innovations sparked immense interest worldwide and even led to mass layoffs in major companies. Some governments attempted to impose bans on the use of neural networks within their territories, sparking widespread debates about the necessity of regulating artificial intelligence.

During the roundtable discussion organized at Artplay Media, the pressing issue of unemployment caused by the proliferation of neural network technologies, particularly in the field of art, was discussed. Participants deliberated on how the world will change in the next 10 years.

Elena Raits, an expert in trendsetting and co-founder of the Russian neural network ReText.AI, highlighted the importance of developing neural network technologies in Russia, citing a special social group: "Russia has 41.78 million pensioners, and technology will play a crucial role in improving their employment prospects." Elena emphasized the active role of the government in supporting AI innovations, including the "Skolkovo" foundation, which provides grants ranging from 20 to 100 million rubles for AI development.

Olga Shkryaba shared the development plans for the ReText.AI neural network: "Neural network technologies open up vast opportunities for society as a whole. We are currently developing our neural network towards spelling and grammar checks, working to make our platform a universal text assistant that enhances the literacy levels of Russians and all users of the Russian language."

Bogdan Salyp, Head of Machine Learning Department and co-founder of the domestic text-based neural network ReText.AI, stated, "At the current stage of neural network development, we can automate the most complex processes without the need for a workforce, and in the near future, thanks to machine learning, humanity will be able to transition to a new level of technological progress. Discussions about the conquest of the world by artificial intelligence lack scientific basis! Neural networks are not our enemy but our ally!"

As a result of the discussion, participants agreed that neural network technologies require common regulation and educational initiatives to enhance qualifications and dispel fears associated with the use of artificial intelligence. However, they emphasized that mere discussions are insufficient, and concrete steps are necessary for effective regulation and management of these technologies.
