This paper constructed a three-dimensional analytical framework gap-bridging policies from perspective policy objectives, tools effectiveness. Based on this framework, used content analysis method conduct quantitative 81 published in China selected PMC index model for evaluation. The result shows that goal bridging mainly focuses material access gap gap, inadequate attention was paid attitude use gap; terms tools, there exists an unbalanced situation regarding supply environment demand with first one being emphasized more than others; still “fatigue” weak feedback less incentive, though internal consistency level good structure reasonable. Therefore, we should optimize objectives bridge divide. We not only consider whether “or not” equipment technology, but also want feel use; “give” unilaterally through supply-oriented “cooperate” each demand-oriented environment-oriented release maximum potential empowerment.

Based on data 271 cities in China at the prefectural level and above, we use a multiple-period difference-in-differences model to explore characteristics of mechanisms establishment pilot free trade zones (PFTZs) digital inequality. We find that, first, PFTZs has significantly positive impact This finding remains valid after series robustness tests mainly inland cities, that are not below provincial level, outside Yangtze River Economic Belt. Second, exacerbates inequality through channels innovation vitality, technology spillover, urban construction. Third, expands between where located surrounding closer they are, stronger widening effect is. Finally, an expected will diminish over time. Our results only enrich research promoting high-quality development economy from perspective but also shed light how divide regions can be bridged PFTZs.

The results indicated significant regional inequality sources recommended by TikTok algorithm, t(118) = 3.02, p .003, with users from developed cities encountering a higher proportion of professional videos than those underdeveloped cities. However, when both regions expressed similar preference for same type information, an equal was recommended. Our findings suggest that widely used algorithms may covertly perpetuate social inequities reinforce preexisting class-based inequalities, particularly affecting vulnerable population low-income regions. also highlights importance enhancing eHealth literacy among disadvantaged mitigate problematic outcomes AI-based communication landscape.
