In Russia, they created the “ Comrade Major ” neural network, which is capable of identifying the owners of anonymous Telegram channels. This was reported by Izvestia with reference to the press service of the National Technology Initiative (NTI). Artificial intelligence checks the channel description, information in messages and built-in chats. The software is currently being tested at the development company T.Hunter. The process also includes collecting data about administrators from the channel description, its archived copies, posts, as well as obtaining metadata of published files. The neural network can find the necessary information in message captions, built-in chat, sticker packs, documents and videos uploaded to the channel. In addition, AI analyzes data leaks and matches them with the user’s name or photo. Igor S. Bederov
