China issues draft rules to regulate AI with human-like interaction

Draft rules require AI providers to monitor emotional states, warn users of addiction risks, and ensure AI interactions follow ethical and security standards, targeting 515 million users.

  • On Dec 27, China's Cyberspace Administration, the national cyber regulator, issued draft rules for public comment targeting AI that simulates human traits and engages users emotionally.
  • To address rising psychological concerns, Beijing's regulators propose rules requiring service providers to identify user emotional states and assess dependence in consumer-facing AI.
  • Requiring technical safeguards, the draft mandates systems for algorithm review, data security and protection of personal information by service providers, and defines national security and content red lines.
  • The rules would apply to public-facing AI products, requiring service providers to assume safety responsibilities across the entire product lifecycle in China.
  • To curb harm, the draft requires providers to warn users of consumer-facing AI against excessive use and intervene when users show signs of addictive behaviour or extreme emotions.
