Two decades after implementing the “great firewall,” Xi Jinping-led Chinese government is reportedly testing artificial intelligence systems to ensure they align with socialist values.
What Happened: The Cyberspace Administration of China is compelling tech giants and AI startups, including ByteDance, Alibaba Group Holding Ltd. (NYSE:BABA), Moonshot, and 01.AI to participate in a mandatory government review of their AI models, reported Financial Times on Wednesday, citing multiple people involved in the process.
It involves testing the AI’s responses to a range of questions, many related to China’s political sensitivities and President Xi. The CAC’s local branches are conducting the reviews, including examining the AI’s training data and safety procedures.
