The UK is committed to advancing AI responsibly and unlocking new possibilities for this transformative technology.

He also highlighted significant collaboration between the UK and Vietnam in AI across health care, software development, and cybersecurity, with 15 UK tech companies visiting Vietnam earlier this year to explore cooperation opportunities.

Meanwhile, Ambassador of the Republic of Korea (RoK) to Vietnam Choi Youngsam expressed the RoK’s readiness to assist Vietnam through ODA projects, global multilateral cooperation, the establishment of new AI standards and sharing of both the AI’s potential and challenges.
