The authorities that do part of the Chinese government indicated the country’s interest in regulating generative artificial intelligence. However, given the public’s possible access to the instrument, they stressed their interest in it contains preliminary guidelines that “should reflect the core values ​​of socialism”as reported by CNBC this Wednesday (12).

The proposed rules have been published by the Cyberspace Administration of China (CAC), which is seeking public feedback on how to apply the country’s cumbersome speech rules to local ChatGPT competitors. In addition to reflecting socialist values, the draft rules state that generative AI must not undermine state power, overthrow the socialist system, or undermine national unity..

In addition, propaganda of terrorism, extremism, or ethnic hatred, as well as the dissemination of “false information” or content that could “disturb the economic and social order,” is prohibited, according to the draft rules of the China Cyberspace Administration. Currently, there are already recommendations for the development of algorithms to avoid discrimination based on race, ethnicity, gender and other characteristics.

The measure comes at a time when companies are investing in AI

The Chinese government’s release of the manual comes amid interest from Chinese companies in building domestic alternatives to OpenAI’s ChatGPT. Alibaba plans to integrate Tongyi Qianwen into its productivity software, and Baidu has announced the launch of its own Ernie bot software.

According to Nikkei Asia, Chinese users had to use a VPN to access US-developed ChatGPT. Tencent has also banned third parties from integrating a generative AI tool into WeChat. China Daily, China’s largest English-language newspaper, warned of ChatGPT’s ability to “amplify US disinformation.”

Experts interviewed by CNBC say Chinese regulators are keeping a close eye on the development of generative artificial intelligence because of its ability to generate politically sensitive content. Generative AI is also cited as a potential privacy and cybersecurity threat as it can create content without human intervention.
