Summary
This TIME opinion piece argues that China has been actively developing AI safety and regulatory frameworks, contrary to common Western assumptions, and urges the U.S. to take AI governance more seriously rather than treating regulation as a competitive disadvantage. It highlights specific Chinese regulatory actions on generative AI and algorithmic recommendations as evidence of a structured approach to AI oversight.
Key Points
- •China has implemented concrete AI regulations, including rules on algorithmic recommendations and generative AI, challenging the narrative that it ignores AI governance.
- •The article argues the U.S. risks falling behind on AI safety policy by framing regulation as antithetical to AI competitiveness.
- •Chinese regulators have focused on content control, data security, and societal harms from AI, offering a distinct governance model worth studying.
- •The piece calls for the U.S. to develop its own robust AI regulatory framework rather than using China's approach as a reason for inaction.
- •Geopolitical framing of AI regulation as a race dynamic may undermine both nations' ability to address shared AI safety challenges.

About this capture
COLLECTED BY
Organization: Archive Team
Formed in 2009, the Archive Team (not to be confused with the archive.org Archive-It Team) is a rogue archivist collective dedicated to saving copies of rapidly dying or deleted websites for the sake of history and digital heritage. The group is 100% composed of volunteers and interested parties, and has expanded into a large amount of related projects for saving online and digital history.
History is littered with hundreds of conflicts over the future of a community, group, location or business that were "resolved" when one of the parties stepped ahead and destroyed what was there. With the original point of contention destroyed, the debates would fall to the wayside. Archive Team believes that by duplicated condemned data, the conversation and debate can continue, as well as the richness and insight gained by keeping the materials. Our projects have ranged in size from a single volunteer downloading the data to a small-but-critical site, to over 100 volunteers stepping forward to acquire terabytes of user-created data to save for future generations.
The main site for Archive Team is at archiveteam.org and contains up to the date information on various projects, manifestos, plans and walkthroughs.
This collection contains the output of many Archive Team projects, both ongoing and completed. Thanks to the generous providing of disk space by the Internet Archive, multi-terabyte datasets can be made available, as well as in use by the Wayback Machine, providing a path back to lost websites and work.
Our collection has grown to the point of having sub-collections for the type of data we acquire. If you are seeking to browse the contents of these collections, the Wayback Machine is the best first stop. Otherwise, you are free to dig into the stacks to see what you may find.
The Archive Team Panic Downloads are full pulldowns of currently extant websites, meant to serve as emergency backups for needed sites that are in danger of closing, or which will be missed dearly if suddenly lost due to hard drive crashes or server failures.
Collection: ArchiveBot: The Archive Team Crowdsourced Crawler
ArchiveBot is an IRC bot designed to automate the archival of smaller websites (e.g. up to a few hundred thousand URLs). You give it a URL to start at, and it grabs all content under that URL, records it in a WARC, and then uploads that WARC to ArchiveTeam servers for eventual injection into the Internet Archive (or other archive sites).
To use ArchiveBot, drop by #archivebot on EFNet. To interact with ArchiveBot, you issue commands by typing it into the channel. Note you will need channel operator permissions in
