A Chinese academic article analyzes the potential risks that generative AI poses to public health and proposes legal and regulatory measures to address them. The authors examine how unregulated deployment of generative models could spread misinformation, affect mental health, and amplify harmful content, urging for preemptive controls.

The paper discusses the balance between promoting technological advancement and protecting public welfare, suggesting that China should introduce new laws or revise existing ones to specifically address AI-related risks in the health domain. It also explores how current legal frameworks may be insufficient to keep up with the pace of generative AI’s evolution.

The study calls for interdisciplinary collaboration, transparency requirements, and ongoing risk assessments to safeguard society as AI technologies become more widespread in healthcare and communication sectors.
