The head of the Ministry of Digital Affairs, Mykhailo Fedorov, who has recently gained wider powers and is additionally responsible for innovation, development of education, science and technology in Ukraine, published a short and at the same time very controversial message in his Telegram channel, which, in fact, is included in the headline.

So far, it is not entirely clear what exactly the minister, who is now one of the most influential people in Ukraine, is hinting at. But one thing can be said for sure: the latest events and statements — the creation of a separate position for an artificial intelligence specialist in the Ministry of Digital, testing of ChatGPT to provide services to Ukrainians in Diya, talks about more than 4,000 AI specialists in the context of the potential expansion of Diya City. directly indicate the restoration of increased interest in the field of artificial intelligence on the part of Mykhailo Fedorov, so it is likely that the state’s involvement (regulation and stimulation) in the development of the industry will increase in the future. Time will tell whether this is good or bad.

Any interesting thoughts or guesses on this? Welcome to the discussion in the comments.
