China Proposes Measures to Manage Generative AI Services: Report

China’s cyberspace regulator on Tuesday unveiled draft measures to govern generative artificial intelligence services, saying it wants companies to submit security assessments to authorities before bringing their offerings to the public.

The rules, drawn up by China’s Cyberspace Administration (CAC), come as several governments consider how to reduce the dangers of the emerging technology, which has seen a surge in investment and consumer popularity in recent months following the launch of OpenAI’s ChatGPT.

They also come after several Chinese tech giants, including Baidu, SenseTime and Alibaba, unveiled their new AI models in recent weeks that can power applications from chatbots to image generators.

The CAC said China supports AI innovation and applications and encourages the use of safe and reliable software, tools and data resources, but content produced by generative AI must conform to the country’s socialist core values.

Service providers are responsible for the legality of data used to train generative AI products, and measures should be taken to prevent discrimination when designing algorithms and training data.

The regulator also said that service providers must require users to provide their real identity and related information.

Service providers are fined, suspended or even subject to criminal investigation if they don’t follow the rules.

If inappropriate content is generated on their platforms, companies must update the technology within three months to prevent similar content from being generated again, the CAC said.

The public can comment on the proposals until May 10, and the measures are expected to take effect sometime this year, according to the draft rules.
