S'pore and Indonesia to co-develop Bahasa Indonesia ChatGPT-like AÏ tool

A ChatGPT-like tool in Bahasa Indonesia is in the works, following a new agreement between Singapore and Indonesia to collaborate in the field of artificial intelligence (AI).

Four Indonesian entities signed a letter of intent in Jakarta on Nov 30 with AI Singapore, the Republic’s national AI programme, to co-develop a new large language model (LLM) tool using similar technology that powers ChatGPT and Google’s Bard.

The goal of this agreement is to collaborate and develop an open-source LLM tool for Bahasa Indonesia that is accessible to a “wide range of stakeholders”, they said in a joint release.

The Indonesian agencies involved include the archipelago’s National Research and Innovation Agency and the Collaboration for Research and Innovation in Artificial Intelligence (Korika).

The other two are AI tool development firms Glair.ai and Datasaur.ai, which are both backed by venture capital firm GDP Venture.
