The AI Alliance launched in December 2023 with over 50 founding members. This month, the Alliance announced that it has nearly 30 additional member states. new member I joined the organization.
The AI Alliance represents a global collection of companies, universities, other research institutions, institutions, and non-profit organizations that have come together to advance responsible and ethical artificial intelligence. The alliance’s goals are to foster open collaboration, form AI governance guardrails, provide testing and benchmarking tools, advocate for policy positions, provide further education, and foster the hardware ecosystem. is.
The Alliance also announced the establishment of its first two working groups: the AI Safety and Trust Tools Working Group and the AI Policy Advocacy Working Group. The AI Safety and Trust Tools Working Group provides information and best practice guidance on AI safety, trust, ethics, and cybersecurity. This group will also be responsible for tools, blogs, newsletters, and whitepapers. This group of experts will improve tools to detect sensitive data, model quality, tuning, and assess cybersecurity threats. It also establishes benchmarks for testing AI models and applications.
The AI Policy Advocacy Working Group will leverage technical experts and policymakers to establish a public forum to discuss opportunities and barriers to open AI innovation. We will also publish AI Alliance information and opinions on key policy topics promoting open source and open innovation. The group’s overall aim is to influence policymakers and promote responsible AI practices.

The formation of the AI Alliance was initiated by IBM and Meta with the goal of building a strong and capable open baseline for AI to address challenges such as governance, supply chain issues, and privacy concerns. I did. Members include prominent technology giants, AI providers, and other institutions such as Intel, Oracle, Cornell, AMD, National Science Foundation, Dell, Hugging Face, Red Hat, Stability AI, and ServiceNow.
Strategically, this partnership represents a cooperative industry-wide offset against the market power of prominent non-member AI companies such as Google, Microsoft, Nvidia, and OpenAI. If this partnership gains enough traction within the industry, it could begin to influence regulatory issues as well. At that time, the absence of influential companies, including those just mentioned, could shape the market and regulations in favor of the AI Alliance and its objectives.
AI Alliance plans to focus on open AI policies, build an AI hardware accelerator ecosystem, and testing and benchmarking tools for AI adoption. The Alliance is also interested in defining model scaling in terms of size, accuracy, cost, and sustainability. These issues are important to obtain a balanced approach to model complexity and practicality.
