Liu et al. on China and Regulation of Artificial Intelligence

Mingwei Liu (Rutgers Management and Labor Relations New Brunswick) and Yi Sui (Renmin U China) have posted “China and Regulation of Artificial Intelligence” on SSRN. Here is the abstract:

China has emerged as a global leader in regulating artificial intelligence (AI). By analyzing major national AI-related policies and regulations, we argue that the Chinese state adopts an instrumental approach to shaping AI policies. This approach seeks to balance efficiency and security, influenced by multiple stakeholders, including tech firms, trade unions, intellectuals, journalists, workers, and the public, as well as emerging global norms of AI governance. Furthermore, China’s regulatory approach to AI is extending its global influence through AI infrastructure projects in “Belt and Road” countries, advocacy in international forums, and its participation in international technical standards bodies.
