The Office of the Privacy Commissioner for Personal Data (PCPD) organised a seminar on “AI and Privacy Protection: Balancing Innovation and Safety” in hybrid mode on 30 July, which attracted nearly 1,000 participants.

At the seminar, the Privacy Commissioner for Personal Data (Privacy Commissioner), Ms Ada CHUNG Lai-ling, introduced the PCPD’s newly published “Artificial Intelligence: Model Personal Data Protection Framework” and elaborated on the best practices for any organisations which procure, implement and use AI systems (including generative AI) that involve the use of personal data. Dr Arvin TANG, Director of Multimedia Systems and Analytics of Artificial Intelligence and Trust Technologies of Hong Kong Applied Science and Technology Research Institute (ASTRI), also shared with the participants some practical experience on how AI could be developed and applied in a privacy-friendly manner.
