Ukraine will actively use artificial intelligence (AI) to process data to establish the exact amount of damage caused by Russia, as well as to search for war criminals. This was announced by the Head of the Presidential Office Andriy Yermak during a conversation with students of the Kyiv Institute of International Relations of the Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv.
“Ukraine is currently compiling a register of damages, which includes all the facilities affected by Russian aggression. And this is where artificial intelligence can really help solve this problem. It can also help in processing huge amounts of data, it can help in establishing the exact amount of damage, in identifying and searching for war criminals. And we will actively use it for these purposes,” said Yermak.
The World Bank has estimated the damage caused to Ukraine by Russian aggression at $524 billion, but this amount could be much higher. “As of today, Russia has destroyed 214,000 civilian infrastructure objects. 173,000 residential buildings, 4,000 schools, and a thousand hospitals have been completely destroyed. Since the beginning of the war, 773 strikes have been launched against our power plants alone. 9,000 communications facilities were destroyed,” the Head of the Presidential Office added.
At the same time, Yermak stressed that artificial intelligence cannot replace the art of diplomacy: “Artificial intelligence can count all the damage caused to Ukraine to the penny. But only humans can convince the whole world that we are right, convince them to compensate for the damage and restore justice.”
Also during his visit to KIMO, Andriy Yermak presented awards to the winners of the All-Ukrainian competition for writing a scientific essay on the topic “The Role of Artificial Intelligence in Bringing the Russian Federation to Justice”. The competition was attended by 130 students from 30 higher education institutions from all over Ukraine. The winners were 17 students from universities in Kyiv, Kharkiv and a temporarily displaced university in Donetsk.
