Rules:

  1. Be civil. Disagreements happen, that does not give you the right to personally insult each other.

  2. No racism or bigotry.

  3. Posts from sources that aren't known to be incredibly biased for either side of the spectrum are preferred. If this is not an option, you may post from whatever source you have as long as it is relevant to this community.

  4. Post titles should be the same as the article title.

  5. No spam, self-promotion, or trolling.

Instance-wide rules always apply.

China’s new generative AI policy promotes enterprise development but puts restrictions on public use, softening draft rules from April.

The idea that an AI can even have core values- or values (and I'm not talking boolean).

[–] mikkL@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I would argue every technology represents the values of its creators. The fact that Meta hid the toxicity of Instagram and let their practices continue reflect their values in their product.

Not that I agree at all with the Chinese government, but I think it makes a lot of sense to regulate and give developers a direction - or moral compass. EU does it as well.

Yeah there is tech out there that reflects the core values of socialism, that’s what FOSS is.

AI absolutely has values. It's based on the source material you feed it, so anything in that source material is passed along to the AI. If you fed an AI solely fascist material, the AI would reflect fascist views and ideology.

It is my assumption that they mean that the AI should not espouse capitalist thought, and should wherever possible promote socialism and socialist reason.
