Russia plans to integrate its own model of artificial intelligence, Gigachat, in the IT systems at the International Space Station (ISS), the head of the Roscosm space agency, quoted by Reuters and Interfax, said on Tuesday.
Gigachat, developed by the country's largest bank, Sberbank, is one of the two large linguistic models (LLM) of Russia, in the context in which it is trying to reach the United States and China in the global race to have you
The new head of Roscosmos, Dmitri Bakanov, said that the next mission to ISS, scheduled for this fall, will transport everything that is necessary for the model to work. Gigachat will assist the crew in processing the satellite images, increasing the maximum resolution from one meter to 0.5 meters.
“This is a direct assistance for cosmonauts,” Bakanov said at a technological conference held in Moscow.
In April, a Russian spacecraft was transported to American astronaut Jonathan Kim and Russian cosmonauts Sergei Rîjikov and Alexei Zubrițki to ISS. The next Russian space mission to the station is planned for November 27.
Russia has announced that it will participate in the ISS program until 2028 and intends to launch the first two modules of its own orbital station in 2027.
Sberbank focuses on the development of Ai agents – generative artificial intelligence systems oriented, designed to process information, make decisions and act without direct and constant human intervention.
