In his opening speech, Minister of Public Security, General Luong Tam Quang, emphasized that AI is the key technology of the 4.0 industrial revolution, which can change the global order. The Party has issued Resolution 57, identifying science and technology, innovation and digital transformation as the "key" to helping the country overcome the middle-income trap, in which AI plays a breakthrough role.
However, along with the potential are unprecedented challenges, not only in terms of technology or ethics, but also in terms of law, security, data sovereignty and the risk of increasing inequality without the right development orientation. Minister Luong Tam Quang emphasized: "Developing AI in the current context requires a delicate balance between innovation and discipline, between speed and control, between integration and independence and autonomy. Building an AI ecosystem cannot be separated from the requirement to ensure technological sovereignty, data security and protection of national interests. AI is not just a market technology, but must be a component of the national strategy for sustainable development and comprehensive security."
