On 30 May 2024, Singapore made headlines with the release of the Model AI Governance Framework for Generative AI, a collaborative effort between the Infocomm Media Development Authority (IMDA) and the AI Verify Foundation. This groundbreaking framework represents a meticulous approach to managing the unique challenges presented by generative artificial intelligence (AI).

As generative AI continues to advance, it becomes increasingly evident that a coordinated global effort is necessary to develop effective policy approaches. The 9 dimensions outlined in the Model AI Governance Framework for Generative AI provide a comprehensive foundation for initiating a global dialogue to address concerns surrounding generative AI while fostering an environment conducive to ongoing innovation. Central to these discussions are the core principles of accountability, transparency, fairness, robustness, and security, which underpin the framework's proposals. It emphasizes the importance of collaboration between policymakers, industry stakeholders, researchers, and like-minded jurisdictions to navigate the complexities of AI governance effectively.
