Shanghai Adds 4 Registered Generative AI Services, Total Reaches 259

The registry is a compliance gate, not a product launch, so the incremental number matters less than the direction: Shanghai keeps formalizing which generative AI services may operate locally. That affects providers seeking legitimacy in the city and the enterprises weighing which services to build on. The open question is whether registration becomes a practical prerequisite for commercial deployment, and how quickly the list keeps growing.
