Reaching Out to the Community — Privacy Commissioner Publishes “Hong Kong Letter” entitled “Adopt AI Model Framework to Mitigate Privacy Risks”

The Privacy Commissioner for Personal Data (Privacy Commissioner), Ms Ada CHUNG Lai-ling, published a “Hong Kong Letter” on RTHK Radio 1 on 29 June 2024 to explain the privacy risks brought about by artificial intelligence (AI), and introduce the “Artificial Intelligence: Model Personal Data Protection Framework” (Model Framework) published by her Office recently.

The Privacy Commissioner pointed out that the Model Framework was published with a view to assisting organisations in complying with the relevant requirements of the Personal Data (Privacy) Ordinance when they procure, implement and use AI. She believed that the Model Framework will help nurture the healthy and safe development of AI in Hong Kong, facilitate Hong Kong’s development into an innovation and technology hub, and propel the expansion of the digital economy not only in Hong Kong but also in the Greater Bay Area.
