China wants to balance socialist principles with development.
China has released new guidelines on generative AI services, limiting their public use while encouraging industrial development.
Reuters reported the Cyberspace Administration of China (CAC) softened its stance compared to draft rules in April. These new interim regulations will take effect on August 15th. The guidelines only affect organizations offering generative AI services to the public. Other entities developing the same technology but not for mass-market use do not fall under the measures.
"core values of socialism"? Like reintroducing landleeches after they were outlawed? Like allowing the bourgeoise to own the means of production and exploit the over a billion working class Chinese people in horrible conditions? Using the profit motive to "incentivize entrepreneurship"?
China is the epitome of SINO, they're an authoritarian capitalist regime.
Crazy how people think they're communist when the state owns much of the means of production and has no interest in handing it over to the actual proletariat. It's state capitalism. They literally have the second highest number of billionaires in the world.
I didn't tell anyone how to run anything, I pointed out how they're an entirely capitalist nation that pretends to be socialist. Maybe the current authoritarian regime will suddenly revert all the market reforms they've implemented over the last 3-4 decades, seize the means of production, and then dissolve the state when it's no longer needed.
I don't believe this will happen, and I don't think many people do. Most of the "socialists" that support China are more than happy with the bourgeoise class existing and exploiting working class people "for the betterment of the State". This kind of thinking falls much more in line with Mussolini than Marx.
Yeah, if I could start my own egalitarian nation, I would, bud. Until then (and even after), I and everyone else has the right to criticize anything we want.
