Singapore is trying to solve a basic problem in artificial intelligence (AI) adoption. Companies are being told to test their AI systems but many still do not know who is qualified to do that work.

The new AI Tester Accreditation Programme aims to address that gap by certifying third-party firms that test AI systems for reliability and safety. The scheme is run by the AI Verify Foundation, a non-profit subsidiary of the Infocomm Media Development Authority (IMDA).

Applications open in the third quarter of this year. There will be no application or accreditation fees.
