Artificial intelligence in the public administration system of Russia and the European Union: comparative legal analysis. Part II

This study presents a comparative analysis of the legal frameworks governing the use of artificial intelligence (AI) in public administration within the Russian Federation and the European Union. The study examines the experience of the European Union in regulating the use of AI. Through an examination of key legislative acts from both jurisdictions, the study reveals that despite the concurrent and independent development of their regulatory approaches, significant differences exist. These divergences stem from fundamental priorities: the EU’s emphasis on protecting negative civil liberties contrasts with Russia’s focus on state security. The analysis also identifies a common regulatory gap - the absence of a dedicated legal act specifically for AI in public administration. A special feature of the conducted research is the detailed analysis of the provisions of the main documents that regulate the use of AI in both legal systems. The author concludes by advocating for the mutual consideration of international best practices in the ongoing formation of global digital law.
