Maxim Baklanov and Arina Belova from the Kemerovo region got married at the International RUSSIA EXPO. For the first time the ceremony was conducted by an artificial intelligence.

The newlyweds met thanks to their passion for KVN, as well as the Student Spring project. Maxim and Arina are graduates of Kuzbass State Technical University and Kemerovo State University.

"We decided to hold a wedding in such an unusual format, because our Kuzbass is now modernizing, the high-tech development is going on", — said Maxim Baklanov.

His wife added that their parents supported their idea of a wedding. They even tried to create a photo of their future child with the help of a neural network.

The AI at the ceremony showed a video about the love story of the newlyweds and the development of Kuzbass. The rings were also modeled by artificial intelligence. As a gift from the Governor of Kuzbass Sergey Tsivilyov, the new family received a certificate for a romantic trip.

Let us remind that this is not the first wedding held at the RUSSIA EXPO. Alexander and Alyona Andreychenko, employees of the Vostochny Cosmodrome were the first to get married here. Besides, Vladislav Fedorov and Zhanna Ksenofontova got married according to Yakutia traditions. And two sweethearts from the Zabaykalsky region, Alexander Tokarev and Yulia Sidorovich, got married according to the Semeiskie-Guran traditions.
