Dissemination of the Russian Language Using Generative Artificial Intelligence
Area of interest
This essay addresses the issues of “investments in technology” and “investments in humans,” as well as the ways these areas mesh with and complement each other.
Hypothesis
The use of generative artificial intelligence in the study of the Russian language could facilitate both the dissemination of the language itself and the promotion and popularization of Russian culture, provided that the use of such technologies will not contradict the spiritual and moral values of the Russian Federation.
Introduction
Technological progress has led us to the development of “generative artifi- cial intelligence,” a technology that is capable of automatically synthesizing learn- ing materials based on user requests. These materials can be represented as text, images, graphs, tables and even videos.
According to data published on the statistics portal Statista,1 in 2023 the Rus- sian language was the eighth most widely used language in the world. Russian has official status in the Russian Federation, Belarus, Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan, and is a secondary language in countries such as Armenia, Azerbaijan, Estonia, Georgia, Latvia, Lithuania, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, Ukraine and Uzbekistan. There are a total of 154 million native Russian speakers, and approximately 104 million people speak Russian as a second language, which amounts to approximately 258 million Russian speakers.
The United Nations (UN), World Health Organization (WHO), National Aeronau- tics and Space Administration (NASA), Organization for Democracy and Economic Development (GUAM), Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO), and Common- wealth of Independent States (CIS) recognize the significance of the Russian lan- guage at the global level, as it is an official language in each of these organizations.
So how is AI relevant to the Russian language? As mentioned above, techno- logical progress has brought aboutthe creation of “generative artificial intelligence.” Despite the controversy surrounding the subject, the use of generative artificial intelligence evidently facilitates learning for people anywhere in the world, as long as they have stable internet access. Consequently, artificial intelligence may poten- tially be a tool for studying the Russian language.
According to a 2023 article by Sandra Hernández at SAS (Sociedad por Acciones Simplificada), the large-scale roll-out of generative artificial intelligence is observed across various regions of the world: in North America (20%), the Asia– Pacific (10%), Latin America (8%), Northern Europe (7%) and Southwestern and Eastern Europe (7%).
Economic and social effects
This technology can be used to not only popularize the language, as the lan- guage itself can become a vehicle for promoting Russian customs, traditions and values – that is to say, “Russian culture.”
But why is generative artificial intelligence viewed as a “potential” tool? Cur- rently available artificial intelligence generally violates Russian ethical principles (which are based on traditional values2), as it acquires information on the basis of statistics collected by algorithms on the basis of data from various social media.3 For this reason, it would be more reasonable to develop artificial intelligence “from the ground up,” leaving its development completely in the hands of the Russian government, supported by teachers, scientists and experts in Russian linguistics, phonetics and information technologies. This would be a social programme that must be in line with the spiritual and moral values of the Russian Federation.
Nevertheless, internet access may represent a hurdle to the implementation of this socially significant project. According to the International Telecommunication Union (ITU), almost one-third of the world’s population (2.6 billion people) does not have internet access. According to the World Bank, the Earth’s population in 2023 was 8.6 billion.
Finally, the implementation of this technology would not only contribute to cultural development, but boost the economy. Companies responsible for devel- oping this artificial intelligence technology could receive funding from the govern- ment to finance the project and earn the larger share of the profits.
Conclusions
Technological progress has led to the development of generative artificial intelligence, which changes methods of the synthesis and transmission of knowledge, in this case the Russian language. Russian is among the top ten languages in the world by popularity (it is spoken by approximately 258 million people), and technological progress in this area can help to spread Russian culture. Neverthe- less, in order to maximize the educational potential of these new technologies, it is important to develop a version of artificial intelligence that corresponds to Russian spiritual and moral values. Such a socially important project would benefit Russian culture as well as the country’s economy.
Expected results
The goal of this project is to disseminate the Russian language using a generative AI that would respect Russian moral and ethical principles. At the same time, the Russian language is expected to act as a vehicle for popularizing the Russian culture among the global community.

Eje temático: El presente ensayo, aborda temas sobre la «inversión en la tecnología» y la «inversión en la humanidad», en donde ambas se complementan para verse favorecidas mutuamente.
Hipótesis: La implementación de la IA generativa en el aprendizaje del idioma ruso podría facilitar tanto la propagación del idioma, así como la promoción y divulgación de la cultura rusa; en la medida en que se desarrolle siguiendo los principios éticos de la Federación de Rusia.
Preámbulo: Gracias al avance tecnológico se ha desarrollado la «inteligencia artificial generativa» la cual, es aquella que produce conocimiento de manera automática, tomando como base la solicitud de información realizada por el usuario. Dicho conocimiento puede ser desglosado a manera de texto, imágenes, graficas, tablas e inclusive en forma de video.
Ahora bien, de acuerdo con una gráfica publicada en el portal de estadística Statista, el ruso es la 8ª lengua más hablada del mundo, con respecto al 2023. La Federación de Rusia, Bielorrusia, Kazajstán y Kirguistán, reconocen la lengua rusa como oficial. Mientras que países como Armenia, Azerbaiyán, Estonia, Georgia, Letonia, Lituania, Tayikistán, Turkmenistán, Ucrania y Uzbekistán, el ruso representa una lengua secundaria para esas naciones. Así pues, existen 154 millones de personas que hablan ruso como lengua materna, y alrededor de 104 millones que lo hablan como segunda lengua, dando un total aproximado de 258 millones de ruso parlantes.
Tanto la Organización de las Naciones Unidas (ONU), la Organización Mundial de la Salud (OMS), la Administración Nacional de Aeronáutica y del Espacio (NASA), la Organización por la Democracia y el Desarrollo (GUAM), la Organización de Cooperación de Shanghai (OCS), y la Comunidad de Estados Independientes (CEI), dan fe de la importancia de este idioma a nivel global; puesto que es una de las lenguas oficiales dentro de cada organización.
Pero ¿en qué se relaciona la IA con el idioma ruso? Como se mencionó anteriormente, el avance tecnológico ha traído consigo la «inteligencia artificial generativa», misma que ha tenido varias controversias a su alrededor; empero, el uso de ésta facilita el aprendizaje desde cualquier punto donde se tenga buena conexión a internet. Habiendo mencionado esto, la IA es una herramienta en potencia que se puede utilizar para el aprendizaje del idioma ruso.
Tan solo, de acuerdo con el artículo publicado por Sandra Hernández en la Sociedad por Acciones Simplificada (SAS), en el año 2023, se observa una notable implementación de la IA generativa en las diferentes regiones del mundo: Norteamérica (20%), Asia Pacífico (10%), Latinoamérica (8%), Europa del Norte (7%) y Europa Sudoccidental y Oriental (7%).
Efectos económicos y sociales: Ya que, no solo se estaría dando difusión del idioma, más bien, el idioma fungiría como medio por el cual se estaría difundiendo las costumbres, tradiciones y valores rusos; en pocas palabras «la cultura rusa».
Ahora bien, ¿por qué «en potencia»? Si se consulta la IA convencional, a la que se tiene acceso hoy en día, es difícil que no se viole el principio de la ética rusa (conformada por los valores tradicionales); puesto que, esta IA adquiere su información con respecto a estadísticas que se basan en el algoritmo generado por las personas en diferentes redes sociales. Por lo cual, lo conveniente sería desarrollar una IA desde cero, diseñada enteramente por el gobierno de la Federación de Rusia; en donde, intervengan maestros, maestras, doctores y doctoras expertos en el tema de la lingüística y fonética rusa, así como en la informática; los cuales sigan el principio ético de la Federación de Rusia, mismo que se podría considerar un programa social.
Aunado a lo anterior, este programa social tendría una limitante más, «el acceso a internet». De acuerdo con la UIT, un tercio de la población mundial (2.6 millones) no cuenta con acceso a internet; considerando que en 2023 había una población de 8.6 MM de personas en el mundo, según World Bank.
Dicho programa, no solamente contribuiría al desarrollo cultural, sino también, en el desarrollo económico, puesto que, la o las empresas encargadas de crear la IA se verían recompensadas por el Estado, puesto que este último será quien financie el programa referido, haciéndose acreedor al mayor porcentaje de ganancias.
Conclusión: El avance tecnológico ha generado el desarrollo de la IA generativa, misma que está transformando la forma en cómo se produce e imparte el conocimiento, en este caso del idioma ruso. Con alrededor de 258 M de hablantes, el ruso forma parte de las 10 lenguas más habladas en el mundo; dicho avance tecnológico actúa como medio para transmitir la cultura rusa. Empero, para potencializar su impacto transmisor y educativo, se requiere desarrollar una IA que respete la ética rusa. Este programa social no solo beneficiaría en el ámbito cultural, sino que también en el ámbito económico del país.
Resultados esperados: A través de este programa social se busca difundir la lengua rusa mediante la creación de una IA generativa que respete la ética rusa, siendo el lenguaje una vía para inculcar la cultura rusa en la población mundial.
