China's internet regulator, the Cyberspace Administration of China, has announced that it will enforce mandatory reviews of generative AI services prior to their public operation. The providers of AI services must ensure that all content is accurate, respects intellectual property, and does not discriminate or endanger security. Additionally, all AI-generated content must be clearly labeled as such. This announcement follows Baidu's unveiling of its new AI chatbot, ERNIE, which is built off of an AI-based deep learning model. Governments around the world are grappling with how to handle the rise of AI services, with Japan showing support for OpenAI's ChatGPT and the US President urging tech firms to consider the risks of AI to society, national security, and the economy. Meanwhile, Italy has placed a temporary ban on ChatGPT following a data breach on the platform, and OpenAI is facing a privacy probe in Canada after allegations of harvesting personal information.
