As part of the Soyuz MS-28 crew's mission, the GigaChat artificial intelligence system, developed by Roscosmos, has also been sent into orbit. Within the project framework, the neural network has been adapted for space conditions and integrated into the station to perform various functions.
The editorial reports that the GigaChat system will automatically transcribe the crew's voice notes and provide additional support to cosmonauts in managing scientific research processes. The artificial intelligence will also be responsible for collecting the results of conducted experiments and preparing preliminary reports.
Experts state that this step will allow for the optimization of daily operations in orbit, reduce the burden of routine tasks, and enable more efficient use of the time resources of the crew working on the station. The system has been specifically improved to operate in real-time and has undergone reliability tests in the space environment.
The expansion of artificial intelligence applications in the Russian space industry increases the likelihood that such technologies will play a more functional role in future missions. This is considered significant in terms of both improving cosmonaut safety and the quality of scientific activity.
