HONG KONG (AP) — Hong Kong’s innovation minister says the government is testing its own ChatGPT-style tool for its employees, with plans to eventually make it available to the public, after OpenAI decided to take extra steps to block access from unsupported regions like China. The program was developed by a generative AI research and development center, led by a Hong Kong university, under a government innovation initiative. To what degree the model would compare to the capabilities of ChatGPT was unclear. Chinese tech giants such as Alibaba and Baidu have Chinese-language AI models that must abide by China’s censorship rules.
