Hong Kong Monetary Authority announces ART framework to support the responsible application of artificial intelligence in the banking sector
PANews October 15 reported that the Hong Kong Monetary Authority announced today the “ART” framework to support the responsible application of artificial intelligence in the banking sector and establish an accountable, resilient and trusted A.I.-enabled banking ecosystem. The specific measures under the “ART” framework include issuing updated Supervisory Guidelines on the Responsible Application of Artificial Intelligence, incorporating insights from Phase of the Generative Artificial Intelligence Sandbox; collaborating with Hong Kong Cyberport Management Company Limited and The University of Hong Kong to establish an A.I. training data-sharing platform, with data quality assurance as a core design principle; and further testing Agentic A.I. applications through GenA.I. Sandbox++, as well as publishing a consultation paper on the proposed regulatory framework for Agentic A.I.governance, exploring intent-based accountability arrangements, a register of material A.I. agents and effective intervention mechanisms.
The report states that the news date was October 15, but does not specify the year.
