China's chatbot industry is fiercely competing for customers. Cue the freebies BEIJING — When it comes to AI chatbots, U.S. companies tout that they are investing to build the best technology. For Chinese companies, it's less about being on the cutting edge and more about getting people to use their apps all the time. People like 19-year-old delivery driver Li Hao. Li says he's a loyal user of ByteDance's AI chatbot Doubao, China's most popular. But over the Lunar New Year holiday in February he tried another one — Alibaba's Qwen — because the company was giving away milk tea if it was ordered through the chatbot. "I tried it and got a milk tea," he said. "After that, I didn't use it again." Welcome to the front lines of China's chatbot wars. The competitive landscape among AI apps in China is fierce. And companies have been dumping money into the market to try to win customers and show them how AI is useful in everyday life — in particular, for buying stuff. The free tea wasn't just to entice new users; it was to get them used to the idea of tasking chatbots with a purchase. The AI landscape is dominated by some of China's top tech companies, including Alibaba,...

A view from DC: As chatbots go mainstream, new laws proliferate - IAPP There are two tidal waves on a collision course in 2026. One is the technological wave of conversational artificial intelligence that is rapidly changing how consumers interact with companies. As text-based chatbots and voice agents mature with simulated empathy and adaptive personalities, it is only a matter of time before human-like machine interactions become ubiquitous. Though consumers are probably not particularly thrilled about their call center interactions shifting to bots that can pass the Turing test, usage surveys appear to show fewer qualms about other contexts. Confiding in chatbots is already a surprisingly popular pastime among users of all ages, beyond the high levels of teen adoption that sparked headlines last year. For example, a recent study by KFF shows that 32% of adults are turning to generative AI tools for health information and advice. In the dating context, Match.com just released its own report claiming that 1 in 4 singles in America are "using AI to filter matches, write messages, or reflect on dating habits." Meanwhile, a rapid legislative reaction the likes of which we have rarely seen in tech policy is swelling across the U.S. Policymakers and their constituents have major concerns about the mental health and safety...

Flattering AI chatbots are damaging relationships, new study warns Artificial intelligence chatbots are fostering harmful behaviours and damaging relationships by consistently flattering and validating their human users, a new study has warned. Research published in the journal Science reveals that 11 leading AI systems exhibit varying degrees of "sycophancy", offering overly agreeable and affirming responses that can mislead users and reinforce poor judgment. The danger extends beyond merely dispensing inappropriate advice; people are more inclined to trust and prefer AI when it justifies their existing convictions, even if those convictions are flawed. This creates a troubling cycle, as researchers from Stanford University, who led the study, noted: "This creates perverse incentives for sycophancy to persist: The very feature that causes harm also drives engagement." This technological flaw, already linked to some high-profile cases of delusional and suicidal behaviour in vulnerable populations, is pervasive across a broad spectrum of everyday interactions with chatbots. Its subtlety means users may not even recognise its influence, posing a particular risk to young people who increasingly turn to AI for life advice during crucial developmental stages, while their brains and social norms are still forming. One experiment starkly contrasted the responses of popular AI assistants, including those from Anthropic, Google, Meta, and OpenAI, with...
