Japan’s ruling party has plans to propose the government to bring forth a new law regulating generative artificial intelligence technologies in 2024, according to Reuters, citing Nikkei business daily.
The AI project team of the Liberal Democratic Party will be responsible for drafting tentative rules for large language models (LLMs) and other generative AI tools, including those developed by Microsoft-backed OpenAI, with provisions for potential fines.
Japan’s proposed move is reminiscent of prevailing global actions in the AI landscape. In Europe, two groups of lawmakers at the European Parliament have greenlit a tentative agreement on AI rules. Similarly, China and the U.S. have been actively making strides in AI governance. The Southeast Asian nations have also adopted a business-friendly approach to AI.
The increasing popularity of generative AI services, like OpenAI’s ChatGPT, has sparked a surge in companies worldwide developing their own LLMs. These models are capable of providing services such as content, image and voice generation.
Companies participating in the development of LLMs include Meta Platforms, Alibaba, Baidu, OpenAI, Alphabet’s Google, Samsung, and Getty Images, among others.
