China continues to lead when it comes to AI regulation
This specific policy is about setting special rules for minors and the elderly, warning users against excessive use, and manual intervention for addiction or suicidal ideation
Sits alongside existing rules such as AI labelling / watermarking

Ok a translation is up.
No matter what your take on these rules, it's hard not to admire China trying to get ahead of these pressing issues: data protection, dependency, labeling and reminders that you are talking to a machine, etc.
Plenty to unpack here.

I can confirm that smaller capacity Switch 2 game cards are in production but due to chip shortages it will take time before we see widespread availability
Despite the smaller capacity, these cards will still be expensive due to rising cost of materials
Game-Key Cards are not going away

Not sure it's the best idea to leave Discord and Roblox on the exemption list.
Also not a fan of outright bans here given it will push users to find workarounds / alternatives.
China's approach is also heavy handed, but with a focus on time, spend and content restrictions backed by real name ID.

mount equipment really should have revisit and have one that allows gathering while mounted (as a tradeoff, yeet the sky golem gather-while-mounted thing). have the gathering work for lumber as well, apply it to all expacs

I'm begging any artists still using Twitter claiming it's integral to their work to just leave. It's been revealed the site works off a made up "credit score" from hell and punishes you for posting like a normal human being.
Abandon Twitter for good. It's time. It's been time.
