The rapid development of technologies in the entertainment
industry has made the practice of editing photos, video frames and
images widespread. Often, it is not possible to distinguish whether
what is published online is real or the result of processing by
artificial intelligence.
In December 2022, the Cyberspace Administration of China (CAC),
together with the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology
(MIIT) and Ministry of Public Security of China (MPS), published
the "Management Provision on Internet Information Services
Depth Synthesis" (Provision), greatly drawing the public
interest as the provision will directly strengthen the regulation
on the internet deepfakes, which aims to create a safer internet
environment.
