    Where China's Draft AI Anthropomorphic-Interaction Measures Need Work — A Scholar's Reform Map

    Li Wenlong (科技利维坦) walks through the directions in which he would amend China's draft Interim Measures for the Administration of AI Anthropomorphic Interaction Services (人工智能拟人化互动服务管理办法) — the country's first dedicated rule on 'companion'-style AI. His critique is structural, not cosmetic: the core definition of '拟人化 (anthropomorphisation)' is too broad because it anchors on human-like expression rather than the real harm (relational dependency); the invented concept of '交互数据 (interaction data)' should be deleted and folded back into PIPL rather than blanket-prohibited; Chapter 2 mixes three incompatible duty types and should be split; the '1M registered / 100k MAU' security-assessment trigger is borrowed from other regimes and does not track real risk; and the training-data duties are horizontal obligations misplaced in a vertical rule. For overseas counsel building companion-AI or emotional-AI products for the China market: this is a map of where the draft is likely to move, and which duties fall on deployers versus base-model providers.
