China tightens regulations on AI products and virtual romance fuels AI revolution.

China's internet regulator has released a draft law requiring all new AI products developed in the country to undergo a "security assessment" before being released to the public. The law aims to ensure the "healthy development and standardised application of generative AI technology" and mandates that AI-generated content must reflect "core socialist values" and not contain "terrorist or extremist propaganda" or "ethnic hatred". The Cyberspace Administration of China is seeking public input on the regulations, which are expected to become law under Beijing's centralised political system.
