What it requires
- If you apply a large foundation AI model to create audio or visual informational material, give the recipient the ability to place a notice that AI technology was used; the exact format is left to agreement with the party providing the model, so it is not a mandatory watermark.
- If you own a Russian-language personal-page platform reaching more than 500,000 Russia-based daily users, give your users the ability to place that same AI-use notice on content they distribute that was created with a large foundation AI model.

What it makes you log
Logging duty
Article 9 gives a person applying a large foundation model the ABILITY to place a notice that AI technology was used (paragraph 1), leaves the notice's format and content to private agreement (paragraph 2), and requires a high-traffic Russian-language personal-page platform to give its users that same ability (paragraph 3). No paragraph names a log, a record, an event-recording capability or an audit trail, and none requires demonstrating or producing on demand something only a record could show: the notice itself, when placed, is the whole of what the article asks for.

What this law does
Article 9 of Federal Law No. 243-FZ, signed , takes effect on .
It requires that a person applying a large foundation AI model (one with at least 1 billion parameters and general multi-task capability) to create audio or visual informational material be given the ABILITY to place a notice that AI technology was used; the format, content, and placement of that notice are left to agreement between the person applying the model and the person providing access to it, so displaying the notice is not itself mandatory.
Separately, the owner of a Russian-language website, information system, or program letting users distribute information through personal pages, where daily access exceeds 500,000 Russia-based internet users, must give its users the ABILITY to place that same AI-use notice on content they distribute that was created using a large foundation AI model.
