[G7 Sets aside China to develop international guidelines for generative AI developers]
Japanese media reported that Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida will announce in a speech on October 9 that this fall, the Group of Seven Industrialists (G7) intends to formulate international guidelines and codes of conduct for generative artificial intelligence (AI) developers.
In his speech, Kishida will mention that "generative AI risks confusing the public and threatening the economy and society because it can produce exquisite fake images and information." Kishida also demanded that a balance must be struck between "promotion" and "regulation". As for how to deal with the spread of false information, Kishida said, "In order to promote the dissemination of reliable information, it will be effective to promote the popularization of technology that can prove and confirm the sender of information."
Japan, which holds the rotating presidency of this year's G7, leads the "Hiroshima AI process" that discusses things like generative AI management. The international guidelines and codes of conduct mentioned by Kishida this time are also the continuation of the policy direction of the G7 Hiroshima Summit in May and the Japan-EU Digital Ministers' Meeting in July.
Knock on the blackboard: The generative AI development competition is in full swing, and the "rule-making" competition in various countries has begun. Japan's G7 presidency promotes the island's AI process. In fact, he is beating his own little nine-nine, and wants to formulate international guidelines and codes of conduct for generative artificial intelligence (AI) developers at the G7 meeting this autumn. It is necessary to set rules for generative artificial intelligence, and it is an international rule. A few days ago, Kishida said more confidently, saying that "Japan is leading the way in promoting the formulation of international rules", which is not only to abandon the rhythm of China, but also to lead the world!
However, China has become an important player and promoter in the global AI field. It is not modest to say that Chinese AI has led the world, and Japan can imagine that other countries can put aside the rules of sumo wrestling in Japan.
