Correction to: Humanities and Social Sciences Communications https://doi.org/10.1057/s41599-021-00959-8, published online 18 November 2021.
The online version of the paper and PDF have been corrected to address the following mistakes that were included in the published paper.
A correction has been made to better reflect the personal opinions of Evgeny Pashentsev, whose views are cited in this manuscript.
The original text read:
Evgeny Pashentsev, a leading AI researcher at the Institute of Contemporary International Studies in Diplomatic Academy of the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, attributes the lack of Russia’s progress in affective computing to a myriad of factors, the first of which is politics. Longstanding geopolitical rivalries and the more recent, anti-Russian sanctions of the US and other NATO countries over the annexation of Crimea hamper international collaborations and critically, funding. Second, the militarization of science and sensitive links between AI development and its weaponization. The third factor is bureaucracy. For decades now, serious problems with the country’s economy have resulted in underfunding in many fields of scientific research.
The revised text reads as follows, namely, with the words ‘over the annexation of Crimea’ removed:
Evgeny Pashentsev, a leading AI researcher at the Institute of Contemporary International Studies in Diplomatic Academy of the Russian Ministry of Foreign, attributes the lack of Russia’s progress in affective computing to a myriad of factors, the first of which is politics. Longstanding geopolitical rivalries and the more recent, anti-Russian sanctions of the US and other NATO countries hamper international collaborations and critically, funding. Second, the militarization of science and sensitive links between AI development and its weaponization. The third factor is bureaucracy. For decades now, serious problems with the country’s economy have resulted in underfunding in many fields of scientific research.
In addition, on three occasions in the paper Evgeny Pashentsev’s surname is misspelled as Pashentseve (sic). These have been corrected.
Lastly, Evgeny Pashentsev’s affiliation is wrongly stated as ‘Ministry of Foreign’. This has been corrected to ‘Ministry of Foreign Affairs’.
