On September 14, 2024, the Cyberspace Administration of China (CAC) released the Measures for Labeling Content Generated by Artificial Intelligence (Draft for Comment) (the "Draft"), with feedback period open until October 14, 2024. Additionally, the Office of the Central Cyberspace Affairs Commission published a mandatory national standard "Cyber-security Technology — Labeling Method for Content Generated by Artificial Intelligence (Draft for Comment)", also available for public consultation.
According to the Draft, if the synthetic content services provided by a service provider fall under the circumstance stated in Paragraph 1 of Article 17 of the Administrative Provisions on Deep Synthesis in Internet-based Information Services, explicit labels must be added to the generated content as per the Measures. The Draft also emphasizes that no organization or individual may maliciously delete, tamper with, forge, or conceal the generated content labels required by these Measures, nor shall they provide tools or services to others for committing such malicious acts. Furthermore, improper labeling methods that infringe upon the legitimate rights and interests of others are strictly prohibited.
