Рекомендательные системы цифровых платформ в Китае: правовые подходы и практика обеспечения прозрачности алгоритмов

Abstract

For many technologically advanced countries, the task of ensuring the transparency of recommender algorithms is in the first place today. Chinese law, which is one of the pioneers of industry regulation, is developing a distinctive approach to ensuring the transparency of recommender system algorithms. Online service operators are considered as service providers of algorithmic recommendations, which are responsible for the possible risks of harm to users, the nation or society. Emphasis is placed on the need to introduce specific control mechanisms to check the safety of recommender systems for various areas of life, which are reflected in the most general form in regulations. By creating legal means to minimise algorithmic risks and protect the fundamental rights of users, the Chinese legislator seeks to avoid excessive regulation that hinders innovation and development of the industry.
