A network of Russian Telegram bots leaves comments using artificial intelligence

According to glavcom.ua: The network of bots struck a significant blow through Telegram, leaving numerous comments on the channels of occupied territories. The main goal is to create the appearance of support for Russia by criticizing Zelensky and promoting positive propaganda.

Bots, controlled by artificial intelligence, discussed narratives and reacted to context. It is important for Russia to normalize the occupation and create the illusion of broad support for these actions by controlling the information field.

• Negative propaganda against Ukraine and Zelensky
• Positive government propaganda of Russia
• Neutral messages about war and peaceful coexistence

This strategy is deeply woven into the overall plan for Russia's dominance in the information space, which serves to influence public opinion and create certain perceptions in the minds of citizens.
