At the ATxSummit 2025, the flagship event of Asia Tech x Singapore (ATxSG), Singapore’s Minister for Digital Development and Information, Josephine Teo, unveiled the following announcements: (1) updates to Singapore’s Large Language Model – Multimodal Empathetic Reasoning and Learning in One Network (MERaLiON) – and the launch of the MERaLiON Consortium, a significant boost to Southeast Asia’s AI capabilities; (2) enhancements to the AI Verify Testing Framework to address the challenges of Generative AI. This update by IMDA offers organisations a comprehensive tool to build trust and ensure responsible AI deployment – for both traditional and generative AI systems; and (3) the release of a crosswalk that maps the enhanced Framework with “NIST AI Risk Management Framework: Generative AI Profile”, which maps out the frameworks to make it easier for businesses operating in both Singapore and the US to meet their AI safety obligations in both countries.
