adminSEOUL, June 17 (Bernama-Yonhap) — South Korea became the fourth country to forge a security partnership in artificial intelligence (AI) with OpenAI, the developer behind ChatGPT, according to South Korea’s science ministry on Wednesday, Yonhap News Agency reported.
Under a memorandum of understanding, South Korea’s AI safety institute (AISI) and OpenAI will work together to prepare a global framework to evaluate AI security, the Ministry of Science and ICT said.
The two sides will also exchange technical information to develop an AI safety assessment framework that reflects the Korean language and the country’s social context, the ministry added.
OpenAI had previously signed agreements with AI security labs in the United States, the UK and Japan.
The latest agreement is expected to strengthen South Korea’s position in the global cooperation network aimed at verifying risks of advanced AI and establishing risk assessment standards, the science ministry said.
AISI and OpenAI plan to hold a working-level meeting to finalise details on their cooperation.
