Chinese authorities are demanding that artificial intelligence chatbots in China stick to the party line.
The Cyberspace Administration of China unveiled a draft of rules that sets restrictions for generative AI, such as Open AI's ChatGPT and Google's Bard. The bots will force AI developers to adhere to the Chinese Communist Party's content guidelines and strict censorship rules.These rules would require AI content to reflect"socialist core values" and avoid any information that undermines"state power" or national unity.
The companies will be required to ensure that images generated by their models are"truthful." The bots will also be required to respect intellectual property claims and not breach copyright. These rules build on previously released guidelines from the CAC that banned deepfakes, or digitally modified media that replace one's likeness with another, and required that they not be used to spread false information.
ChatGPT is unavailable in China. However, Chinese companies have begun building their bots to compete with U.S. companies.Silicon Valley companies are racing to beat one another to innovate and build the best bot. Microsoft, Google, and Amazon are now racing to improve their large language models, the underlying data, and the software used to power their chatbots. Elon Musk also entered the race with the intent to start his own AI company. Musk previously helped found ChatGPT developer OpenAI.
U.S. lawmakers and regulators are moving to establish guidelines for ensuring the legal and safe use of AI. Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer is building a framework in partnership with AI experts that he expects to file as legislation soon.
