Publication,Publication of AI Discussion Paper (Version 1.1)

What Changed

• The Version 1.1 update reflects a stakeholder-informed evolution rather than a complete regulatory overhaul:
• Incorporation of industry feedback: The revision integrates insights from the FSA AI Public-Private Forum discussions on AI utilization status, risk management practices, and regulatory application clarifications
• Expanded scope: The paper now addresses "a broad range of related issues" beyond the initial Version 1.0 framework, reflecting emerging challenges identified through industry dialogue
• Preliminary guidance framework: The document provides initial guidance on current state assessment and challenge identification, explicitly acknowledging that technological advancements may alter identified challenges
• Regulatory clarity initiative: The paper addresses "situations that require clarification on how regulations apply" to AI implementations, signaling the FSA's intent to reduce regulatory ambiguity for financial institutions
