The head of MI6 in the UK calls on Russians to become spies. UK | Russia | MI6
According to the website of The Times on July 19th, the head of MI6 in the UK called on Russians to "join hands with us" and fled to engage in espionage activities for the UK.
Richard Moore, the head of the UK's secret intelligence agency, said, "You know the exact address - come and talk to us."
He said that Russians can help end the bloodshed by engaging in espionage activities for Britain. "I invite them to do what others have done in the past 18 months and join us. Our doors are always open," he added.
Moore made this speech at the official residence of the British Ambassador to the Czech Republic, Matt Field.
According to a report by the Associated Press in Prague on July 19th, the head of MI6 in the UK stated on the 19th that British spies have been using artificial intelligence to obstruct the supply of weapons to Russia, and it is expected that Western spies will increasingly focus on tracking the malicious use of artificial intelligence by hostile countries.
According to reports, in a rare public speech, Richard Moore also urged Russians who opposed the "invasion" of Ukraine to act as spies for Britain.
In his speech, Moore stated that artificial intelligence is both a huge potential asset and a significant threat. He said that the staff of MI6 are "combining their skills with artificial intelligence and big data to identify and block weapons flowing to Russia for use against Ukraine.".
Moore also said, "Our task will increasingly include obtaining relevant intelligence and understanding how hostile countries use artificial intelligence in destructive, reckless, and unethical ways."
Moore had previously warned that the West was lagging behind their opponents in the artificial intelligence competition. But he said that artificial intelligence will not be able to completely replace human spies, and in the era of rapid development of machine learning, the "human factor" remains crucial.
He believes that "in appropriate places, the uniqueness of human agents will become even more important," highlighting the ability of spies to "influence internal decision-making within governments or terrorist organizations.".
