China’s Ant Group, Baidu and Tencent Holdings have joined forces with leading global tech companies including OpenAI, Microsoft and Nvidia to publish two international standards on generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) and large language models (LLMs).
The companies on Tuesday released the “Generative AI Application Security Testing and Validation Standard” and the “Large Language Model Security Testing Method” during a side event at the United Nations Science and Technology Conference in Geneva, Switzerland, according to a statement from the event organiser, the non-profit World Digital Technology Academy (WDTA).
They are the first global standards specifically covering GenAI and LLM, technologies behind increasingly popular AI services such as OpenAI’s ChatGPT and Microsoft’s Copilot, which is supported by OpenAI technology. Chinese search engine operator Baidu has also rolled out its own AI chatbot, Ernie Bot, while Tencent and Ant have launched their respective LLMs.
Ant is an affiliate of Alibaba Group Holding, owner of the South China Morning Post.
The new GenAI standard was written by researchers from Nvidia, Facebook owner Meta Platforms and others, and reviewed by companies including Amazon.com, Google, Microsoft, Ant, Baidu and Tencent.
