The State Administration for Market Regulation (SAMR) has recently announced its plan to issue a comprehensive series of national standards in the realm of artificial intelligence, aimed at fostering a standardized and robust industry growth. According to Wang Qiuping, SAMR's spokesperson, amidst the rapid expansion and proliferation of AI applications, SAMR, in conjunction with relevant departments, released the "Guidelines for the Construction of a Comprehensive National Standardization System for the Artificial Intelligence Industry" at the close of last year. Since the turn of the year, SAMR has introduced multiple national standards encompassing general requirements, evaluation metrics and methodologies for large AI models, as well as assessments of service capability maturity, thereby establishing a firm foundation for the standardization of AI applications.
Currently, SAMR is intensifying efforts to develop additional national standards for artificial intelligence, in line with the overarching strategy outlined in the "Guidelines," and to continuously enhance the national standard system within the AI sector.
