In recent years, deep synthesis technology has developed rapidly. While serving user needs and improving user experience, it has also been used by some unscrupulous people to produce, copy, publish, and disseminate illegal and harmful information, to slander and belittle others’ reputation and honor, and to counterfeit others’ identities. Committing fraud, etc., affects the order of communication and social order, damages the legitimate rights and interests of the people, and endangers national security and social stability.
The introduction of the “Regulations” is a need to prevent and resolve security risks, and it is also a need to promote the healthy development of in-depth synthetic services and improve the level of supervision capabilities.
Providers of deep synthesis services shall add signs that do not affect the use of information content generated or edited using their services. Services that provide functions such as intelligent dialogue, synthesized human voice, human face generation, and immersive realistic scenes that generate or significantly change information content, shall be marked prominently to avoid public confusion or misidentification.
It is required that no organization or individual shall use technical means to delete, tamper with, or conceal relevant marks.
Good stuff
The west needs laws like this NOW.
An unmarked AI-generated image of China’s flag, which will be illegal in China after January 10, 2023.

:xi-clap:
Smart move. Transparency is good. I wonder how they’ll try to spin this as China hiding something.
They might just frame it as China hindering tech innovation. Sounds scarier
They’re saying that China will just say any images they don’t like are illegally AI generated.
China: “We’re banning this content cause it sucks”
Western Journalist: “You are doing this because its AI.”
