Over the past few days, several Western media outlets have reported on a chatbot that has been trained with „Xi Jinping thought,“ giving it the ability to respond just as the head of state would. Some jokingly referred to the Large Language Model (LLM) as „Chat Xi PT.“ In fact, the „Cyberspace Information Research Large Model“ (网信研究大模型应用) presented by the Cyberspace Academy is not an AI bot like ChatGPT. Instead, it is more of an aid to digital administration, for example, when navigating databases. Xi Jinping’s philosophy only plays a secondary role – in contrast to other Chinese apps that allow users to study Xi Jinping’s philosophies in their free time, as shown above.
