Translated with AI from the Russian original.

The new digital product based on the proprietary neural network model GigaChat is designed for small business clients. The first 200,000 users of the SberBusiness online bank can evaluate its capabilities for free.

Anatoly Popov, Deputy Chairman of the Executive Board of Sberbank, spoke about the features of the Giga-assistant at the XXVIII St. Petersburg International Economic Forum.

Giga-assistant is a personal AI assistant for entrepreneurs that can solve everyday tasks and help in the strategic development of the business. It analyzes reports, highlights key indicators, tracks trends, and forms conclusions, based on which it offers personalized recommendations.

The assistant is capable of creating a marketing campaign plan, developing a promotion strategy, preparing a product description or official letter, as well as checking documents and providing support in matters of taxation and recruitment.

Anatoly Popov said:

We made Giga-assistant simple, convenient, and free so that even those who are far from artificial intelligence can intuitively use it from day one. 200,000 of our clients are already testing it, and we see how it is changing their business. Our goal is to show how technologies work for results and become a powerful driver of growth. The new version of Giga-assistant takes the product to a qualitatively different level. From analyzing indicators, we are moving to joint action: the assistant becomes a partner who takes on part of the routine tasks of the entrepreneur - for example, automatically creates an online store directly during a joint dialogue with the owner or manager.

Storage you can trust in the background: Basis SDS 2.3 released with scheduled diagnostics and an observer role

A storage system is the only infrastructure layer where an error cannot be “rolled back”: neither a reboot nor a configuration rollback will restore lost data. That is why users expect predictability from software-defined storage rather than just new features—ensuring background processes finish what they started, and administrators can see the cluster status not only “right now,” but also over time.
