NoteQUA-650 retro-scan: The source's primary subject is China's generative AI regulation policy, not Baidu itself. While Baidu is mentioned as one of several industry stakeholders who provided input on the policy, the source is fundamentally about the regulation, not about Baidu as an entity. Per QUA-648, a company mentioned as a stakeholder in a policy document is a MISMATCH with a claim about that company as the primary subject.
