Chinese Technology Companies Release AI Services to the Public

Summary
In late August, Chinese technology companies such as Baidu and ByteDance released their generative AI services to the public for the first time. This follows the Chinese government’s approval of the release of these services to the public. News reports indicate that Chinese companies anticipate releasing additional models to the public in the future, and that the Chinese government will likely impose additional regulation on generative AI based on the country’s experience with these initial releases.
