NEW: What does China's outbound data transfer regime look like a few months after authorities replaced cumbersome rules with a new approach?

A thought-provoking initial take from @DigiChn on the proposed text of a Chinese "Artificial Intelligence Law" floated last week by the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences (CASS). I didn't even know CASS was a player in this space, but clearly they are!

We joined @stanfordcyber at launch. Four years at college—does that mean we’ve earned our bachelor’s?
🎂Today, June 6th, @StanfordCyber turns four years old. 🥂
We've grown to six programs (soon to be seven), hosted sold out events, formed partnerships, launched initiatives, and published ground breaking research. Take a look back at our milestones:🗓️

Glad to contribute my 2c on how China is approaching generative AI regulation to this @DigiChn forum. It's not just Italy and co taking a close look at the data protection implications of ChatGPT and the like...

Why did 🇨🇳 China release a new draft regulation on generative AI just 4 months after their last regulation covering generative AI went into effect?
I answer that question and draw lessons for other countries in my submission to this @DigiChn forum:

These recommendations by Chinese AI policy scholars pairs nicely with the @DigiChn forum on the same generative AI draft regulation: digichina.stanford.edu/work/…

🇨🇳's AI policy community is publicly debating the country's draft generative AI regulation.
Here 7 Chinese scholars suggest 5 changes including:
- softening training data requirements
- diversifying mitigation methods
Cool to watch this debate play out:

You can click through to our translation in the forum. Editor @gwbstr also recommends the "obligations" and "liabilities" table from @ChinaLawTransl8's article this week as a cheat sheet for what's in the draft: chinalawtranslate.com/overvi…
