In a video address to the participants of the V CIS Media Forum, "Media Development in a Changing World," Margarita Simonyan emphasized that it is crucial for journalists to realize the impact of artificial intelligence on the profession and learn to use its capabilities in their own interests.

The impact of technology on the media sphere

According to the head of the Rossiya Segodnya media group, modern journalism in all formats — from television to print media and agency materials — is undergoing rapid changes. Simonyan expressed hope that new technologies will become a tool that helps make media professionals' work more interesting, increases information accuracy, and eases professional tasks, rather than becoming a threat.
