The remarks were emphasized by Deputy Minister of Science and Technology Bui Hoang Phuong at the Vietnam AI Conference - AI4VN 2025 on September 26. He believes that the obligation of transparency and labeling not only helps users identify when they are working with AI, but is also the basis for protecting their social rights and safety.

According to Deputy Minister Bui Hoang Phuong, as the Law on Artificial Intelligence is to be passed in 2025, Vietnam will be among the few countries in the world with a clear and comprehensive legal framework on AI. The law not only regulates but also aims to create motivation for research, innovation and development of the domestic AI ecosystem.

It was established upon five principles: people-centered; ensuring safety and transparency; national autonomy alongside international integration; inclusive and sustainable development; balanced and harmonious governance.

Another highlight is the formation of a national AI database to manage and monitor high-risk systems, while building a national AI infrastructure with two goals, namely research purpose and state management purpose.

“When users are informed in advance, they have the right to choose how to interact, thereby creating social trust in AI,” Deputy Minister Bui Hoang Phuong emphasized.

The Ministry of Science and Technology also focuses on ethical issues when applying AI in education, health, finance and public management. AI is encouraged to be used as a support tool, not as a replacement for humans. Users will not sacrifice the ability to think independently, while ensuring fairness and protecting personal data.

AI ethics is a heated debate globally. More than 200 former heads of state, Nobel laureates and AI experts recently called on governments to draw “red lines” for AI, with the goal of reaching an international agreement on absolute limits by the end of 2026.

Previously, Minister of Science and Technology Nguyen Manh Hung emphasized that we must develop AI fast, safe, and humane.

“AI must be for humans, serve humans, not replace humans,” he said.

Deputy Minister Bui Hoang Phuong reaffirmed that the Ministry of Science and Technology will continue to perfect the legal framework to promote practical applications and build an open and transparent AI ecosystem. It is a matter of human rights to be informed and their choices are always prioritized.
