Science & TechnologyChina Mandates Safeguards for AI Chatbots Mimicking Human Personality
China introduced interim measures requiring AI services that simulate human personality to implement anti-addiction systems. Doubao, with 345 million monthly users, is suspending its agent features.
China through its Cyberspace Administration released interim measures governing AI anthropomorphic interactive services, mandating that AI applications implement anti-addiction systems. The regulations require service providers to display mandatory usage notifications and provide instant-exit mechanisms. Doubao, the most-used AI application in China with 345 million monthly active users, announced suspension of its agent features by July 15. The measure aims to protect users, particularly minors, from excessive engagement with AI systems that simulate human personality. The implementation of these regulations reflects China's increasingly stringent oversight of generative AI technologies. This development marks a significant step in China's comprehensive regulatory framework for artificial intelligence services.
