Part I. Historical and Doctrinal Background: 1. Innovating in china's entrepreneurial ecosystem; 2. The extent of fuzzy logic: the tech giants and their 'illegal' legal structure; 3. China's cyber policies: conflict between innovation and restriction; 4. China's data security policies leading to the cyber security law; 5. The cyber security law: fuzzy logic in a touchstone law; Part II. Impact on Artificial Intelligence: 6. the impacts of data localisation on globalised ecosystems and Chinese tech development; 7. How fuzzy provisions in the cyber security law protect data but not data privacy: 'data protection shall not hinder AI'; 8. Why the current state of AI research is perfectly suited to China's fuzzy logic system; 9. Open-source Ai platforms and the cyber security law; Conclusion — effect of data localisation on Chinese AI innovation.
