E-raamat: AI Development and the 'Fuzzy Logic' of Chinese Cyber Security and Data Laws

'In examining 'fuzzy logic' in China's Cyber Security Law, this book provides invaluable insights into how China can be a powerful force in AI and tech innovation. It will have a significant impact on the way in which we conceive of technology regulation in China and elsewhere.' Andrew Godwin, Melbourne Law School, The University of Melbourne 'As China navigates tensions between state control and the imperatives of innovation in internet technology, this book offers timely insights. It digs deeply into the 'fuzzy logic' of rules on data localisation, and frames a compelling argument that will help shape scholarly and policy debates in coming years.' Adam K Webb, Co-Director and Professor of Political Science, Hopkins-Nanjing Center 'The Chinese tech scene presents us with a bewildering picture of deeply intertwined technological, political and commercial questions and interests. This complexity equally affects Chinese policymaking, particularly in fields related to data and artificial intelligence. This volume aims to enlighten the way by which China gropes its way forward carefully, but decisively.' Rogier Creemers, Assistant Professor, Leiden University 'Parasol brings ground-up observations of how China's tech ecosystem really works, and skillfully integrates those with important insights from academia and beyond. He cuts right through the tired debates about whether China can innovate, and deftly illustrates how the 'fuzzy logic' of Chinese tech policy is enabling local experimentation that drives the ecosystem forward. Parasol's book provides excellent intellectual scaffolding for those of us trying to make sense of how Chinese tech got where it is today, and where it's going next.' Matt Sheehan, Fellow, The Paulson Institute 'a timely, insightful and well-researched contribution to the literature on China and technology Parasol's fascinating book is likely to find its way onto postgraduate reading lists and presents ideas and hypotheses that can be tested and expanded in future scholarship.'
