The Chinese government has initiated a mandatory review of artificial intelligence models developed by tech companies and start-ups to ensure they align with core socialist values. This move, led by the Cyberspace Administration of China, involves extensive censorship measures and keyword filtering. Major companies like ByteDance, Alibaba, and Moonshot are required to participate in the review process. The initiative aims to create AI systems that embody socialist principles, reflecting the government's increasing control over technology and its applications. The review specifically targets large language models, according to the Financial Times.
