IEEE AI Industry Standards Alliance Announcement at IEEE CISOSE and IEEE FTS
In a significant development at this year's IEEE CISOSE (International Conference on Intelligent Systems and Services Engineering) and IEEE FTS (Future Technology Summit), IEEE announced the establishment of the IEEE AI Industry Standards Alliance. The formal launch symposium was chaired by Conference Committee Chair Jerry Gao and Industrial Alliance Chair Jane Wu. This initiative aims to address the challenges posed by the rapid development of AI technologies and applications by establishing clear quality standards and certification systems for AI technology development, fostering the healthy growth of the global AI industry.

With the rapid advancement of AI technology and smart applications, clear quality standards and certification systems have become a pressing industry need. The current lack of a universal AI standards system has made quality assessment of various AI algorithms and application systems difficult. Objective verification of AI system intelligence levels and automated management and regulation of their application scenarios and outcomes are crucial. Effective evaluation standards and quality certifications are essential to ensuring the reliability, safety, and human-centric nature of AI systems. Furthermore, existing standards systems are inadequate to meet the demands of AI's cross-company, cross-industry, and cross-regional development.
The IEEE AI Industry Standards Alliance will be established as a non-profit organization with members and business units globally, benefiting AI participants worldwide. The alliance will create a global AI quality standards conference and community, with regional centers located in AI development hotspots. Through a global service platform, top experts will collaborate closely with leading industry solution providers and industry leaders to develop, validate, establish, and promote AI system quality standards, enhancing the intelligence, reliability, safety, and fairness of machine learning models and AI applications.
To better cover and regulate different application areas of AI technology, the IEEE AI Industry Standards Alliance will establish specialized committees in several key areas:
-
AI Test Automation: Developing and standardizing AI test automation technology to ensure AI system reliability and performance.
-
Chatbots: Standardizing chatbot technology to enhance natural language processing and user interaction experiences.
-
Smart Cities/Surveillance: Setting standards for smart cities and surveillance systems to promote urban intelligence and safety management.
-
Smart Grid/Green Energy Cloud: Advancing the standardization of smart grids and green energy cloud computing to support sustainable energy development.
-
Intelligent Drones: Standardizing intelligent drone technology to improve drone intelligence and application levels.
-
EV/Smart Transportation: Establishing standards for electric vehicles and smart transportation systems to drive transportation intelligence and environmental protection.
-
Smart Agriculture: Standardizing smart agriculture technology to enhance agricultural productivity and sustainability.
-
Semiconductors: Promoting standardization in the semiconductor industry to support AI hardware technology development.
-
Infrastructure and Tools: Standardizing AI infrastructure and tools to ensure efficient AI system development and deployment.
The IEEE AI Industry Standards Alliance will engage in extensive global promotion and outreach activities, including high-end forums, technical workshops, and training courses, to raise industry awareness and emphasize the importance of AI standardization. The alliance will also regularly publish technical reports and standards guidelines, providing companies and research institutions with the latest standard information and technical support, facilitating the orderly and standardized development of AI technologies. Through the establishment of this alliance, IEEE not only lays a solid foundation for the development of the global AI industry but also creates endless possibilities for the intelligent society of the future. We look forward to more industry partners joining the IEEE AI Industry Standards Alliance to collectively create a bright future for artificial intelligence.
