With the help of the visualization software Citerspace and VOSviewer, the paper conducts data processing and visualization analyses from annual publication volumes, main agencies, core authors, and keyword trends. The paper studied the conditions and future perspectives of the Chinese generative AI governance studies. Our study shows that the paper volumes of this field are witnessing a rising trend. The research mainly aims at digital security as the key research topic; AI algorithms in technical difficulty-related topics; agile governance, risk governance, digital governance, technical governance, comprehensive governance, and global governance as solution-related topics. Trends in this field are becoming more diverse in governance fields and patterns. National security is becoming more and more important macroscopically. As for governance tools, papers focus more on the development of legal regulations. Microly, papers pay attention more to the privacy and security of personal information.
