The Cybersecurity Administration of China (CAC), China's
data protection and cybersecurity watchdog, recently passed the final text of the Internet Information Service
Algorithm Recommendation Management Regulations, an extensive set
of rules - one of the most fully developed artificial intelligence
(AI) regulations in the world - designed to govern the use of
AI-based recommendation algorithms.
From ByteDance to Tencent
Holdings, companies in China and beyond are using
recommendation algorithms as one of the most widespread types of AI in use today. The new
regulations, which were published along with a series of related FAQs for journalists, are a part of China's
ongoing efforts to regulate technology platforms in contexts
ranging from securities regulation and competition to data security
and privacy. When implemented, the regulations will have a major
impact on companies relying on recommendation algorithms both
inside and outside China.
