The first special AI alliance was formed

On June 20 in Hanoi , in the context of Decision 1131 recently issued by the Prime Minister identifying 11 strategic technology groups that have a profound impact on the country's competitiveness and technological autonomy, in which AI is ranked No. 1, for the first time, more than 20 state agencies, enterprises, and universities "joined hands" to establish the Au Lac AI Alliance.

Established with the aim of developing large language models (LLM) capable of processing Vietnamese accurately, naturally, and in accordance with Vietnamese culture and identity, thereby improving people's knowledge and promoting national economic development.

In addition, the alliance aims to build an open and transparent AI community where all individuals, organizations and businesses can freely access and use the alliance's public assets, including source code, data and models, even for commercial purposes, to stimulate innovation, widely apply AI, and realize national AI sovereignty .

At the same time, the alliance is committed to developing safe, responsible AI products that comply with Vietnam's ethical standards and legal regulations.

Sharing at the event, Mr. Truong Gia Binh - Chairman of FPT Board of Directors - said: "The world is entering the AI ​​era and Vietnam is also facing a great opportunity to rise up. But we are facing three major challenges.

The first is to protect technological sovereignty, an inseparable part of national sovereignty.

The second is to realize the goal of becoming an advanced country. Vietnam has established a "quadruple strategic resolution" on science and technology, international integration, law and private economy to bring the country forward in the new era.

Decision 1131 also placed AI at number 1 in the country's 11 strategic technology groups.

Third is the lack of investment resources. The major powers invest hundreds and thousands of billions of dollars each year in AI, while Vietnam does not have equivalent resources. The Au Lac AI Alliance was born as a solution to these challenges. The AI ​​Alliance is not just an initiative, but a call to arms."

Research on large language models to process Vietnamese accurately

The Au Lac AI Alliance operates on three principles: Consensus - Respect - Open Community. Based on the strengths of its members, the Au Lac AI Alliance will focus on three main areas: research and development, building standards and policies on AI, and training.

In the field of research and development, members will work together to develop large language models with the ability to process Vietnamese accurately, naturally, and in accordance with Vietnamese culture and identity, contributing to improving people's knowledge and promoting the national economy.

At the same time, join forces to build an open and transparent AI community where all individuals, organizations and businesses can freely access and use public assets (including source code, data and models), including for commercial purposes, to promote AI innovation and application in Vietnam, realize national AI sovereignty and enhance Vietnam's technological position.

In the field of AI policy and standards development, Au Lac AI Alliance will contribute opinions on AI-related policies, standards and codes of conduct to ensure AI products are safe, responsible, and comply with ethical standards and legal regulations.

In the field of training, the alliance will organize activities, training programs, and competitions to raise awareness, knowledge, and skills about AI for the community.

The first members to join the alliance are leading technology units and technology startups such as: Ho Chi Minh National Academy of Politics, MobiFone, VNPT, FPT, CMC, BKAV, Misa, MoMo, VNPAY, Zalo, AI For Vietnam, AI Hay, N2TP, Finhay and academies and universities: Hanoi University of Science and Technology, Academy of Posts and Telecommunications Technology, Academy of Cryptography Engineering, Ho Chi Minh City University of Technical Education, Ton Duc Thang University, Ho Chi Minh City University of Law, FPT University.
