At a Novosibirsk State University meeting on AI threats, Putin told students he is not afraid of the technology and fears nothing.

The remark fits his carefully cultivated image as a fearless tough guy, rooted in KGB service, judo, and childhood stories of never backing down in Leningrad fights. “I am not afraid of anything” is a recurring line in his rhetoric.

Yet the security apparatus around him is exceptionally large and has grown sharply during the war years amid concerns over assassination and internal threats – leading some to argue the “fearless” posture masks deep paranoia.
