I wrote about the biggest change in 🇨🇳 AI policy over the past year: growing worry about AI's impact on jobs.
Covers:
- the surprising spark that ignited the shift
- different ministries competing to lead on AI
- China's ~5 part plan for dealing w/ labor impacts

Sat down this week to chat with @KaiserKuo about our latest research on China's generative AI ecosystem - check out the convo on the @SinicaPodcast

No surprise here: Foreign companies have only registered 0.5% of generative AI algorithms in China, and none of those are bleeding edge. Geopolitics and China's internet regulations are significantly dampening foreign involvement. 9/9
Did you know the Chinese gov publishes an official list of public-facing generative AI tools operating in China? I spent the last six months cataloging and analyzing all 3,739 of them. Here are my early findings – and my data set. Exec sum in thread. 1/9 https://t.co/cLNF0iM4dI
State-affiliated entities hold approximately 22% of the generative AI licenses issued in China, but China’s big telecoms – notably China Mobile – appear to be the only central state-owned enterprises doing genuinely innovative generative AI development. 8/9

Beijing has made leading-edge, highly-efficient manufacturing capabilities a top policy priority. In this analysis, @triviumchina experts @kendraschaefer and @coryjcombs provide an in-depth overview of this emerging effort, dubbed “new industrialization.”
My latest on China #GenAI with @kendraschaefer. Full version with much more detail will be published later this week...

The Cyberspace Administration of China has just released regulations revising the data export regime. These came out in draft last autumn and heralded a considerable loosening of strict requirements on security review, standard contracts or certification. A few highlights:
