China has released new guidelines on generative AI services, limiting their public use while encouraging industrial development.
Reuters reported the Cyberspace Administration of China (CAC) softened its stance compared to draft rules in April. These new interim regulations will take effect on August 15th. The guidelines only affect organizations offering generative AI services to the public. Other entities developing the same technology but not for mass-market use do not fall under the measures.
“core values of socialism”? Like reintroducing landleeches after they were outlawed? Like allowing the bourgeoise to own the means of production and exploit the over a billion working class Chinese people in horrible conditions? Using the profit motive to “incentivize entrepreneurship”?
China is the epitome of SINO, they’re an authoritarian capitalist regime.
Focus on creating revolution in your country before you go telling other people how to run their experiment.
I didn’t tell anyone how to run anything, I pointed out how they’re an entirely capitalist nation that pretends to be socialist. Maybe the current authoritarian regime will suddenly revert all the market reforms they’ve implemented over the last 3-4 decades, seize the means of production, and then dissolve the state when it’s no longer needed.
I don’t believe this will happen, and I don’t think many people do. Most of the “socialists” that support China are more than happy with the bourgeoise class existing and exploiting working class people “for the betterment of the State”. This kind of thinking falls much more in line with Mussolini than Marx.
Will CCP also start following the core values of socialism now?
Maybe get your country to have a higher democracy index than china before criticizing them?

Whataboutism
That is a perception index and not a democracy index. It is purely based on what the surveyed people said about their government.
If you ask most in China anything about the government, they will only say good things and deny anything else, because doing otherwise could result in them getting ‘disappeared’.
As the survey report itself says:
“In authoritarian countries, positive perceptions might result from different conceptions of democracy, high levels of government satisfaction, or fear of speaking out against the government.” I am betting on the latter.
