Taiwan to bar use of AI in official government documents (TVBS News)
TAIPEI (TVBS News) — The surge of Generative AI has taken the world by storm, with CHATGPT proving to be a helpful tool for problem-solving and efficiency improvement.
Recently, its applications have reached the realm of public affairs, as seen in the use of AI by a city councilor in Kaohsiung for conducting inquiries and the Hualien County Government's plan to employ AI for drafting news releases.
The potential future integration of AI in official documentation writing has raised concerns over data security and leaks, prompting the National Science and Technology Council to issue guidelines explicitly prohibiting the use of Generative AI in producing classified documents.
With efficiency being a key priority for public agencies, leveraging AI to draft official documents gained traction.
The Minister of Economic Affairs, Wang Mei-hua, emphasized the importance of implementing guidelines for civil servants to ensure responsible and secure usage of AI in governmental operations.
The Minister of Justice, Tsai Ching-hsiang, also echoed this sentiment, stating that authorities must take preemptive measures to address legal and accountability issues.
While the potential of AI applications in public administration is promising, concerns over information security have ignited discussions among various governmental bodies.
The National Science Council aims to initiate inter-ministerial deliberations to formulate guidelines and regulations to govern the usage of Generative AI, striking a balance between efficiency and data safety in government operations.
