Chinese President Xi Jinping said Thursday that China and the United States share a responsibility to guide artificial intelligence development and keep the technology under human control.
Xi described the two countries as leading nations in AI, saying they have both the capability and obligation to develop and manage it for beneficial purposes. His remarks came as Washington and Beijing compete for influence in the industry while exploring ways to communicate about national-security risks linked to the technology.
A dedicated US-China AI hotline is not expected to be operational soon, Wired reported, indicating that formal crisis-management channels remain under development. The two governments nevertheless appear to be considering methods of communication on AI-related security issues.
The competition remains uneven across key measures. The United States leads in AI investment and computing capacity, while China is ahead in research and is narrowing the gap in advanced AI models, according to Al Jazeera. The rivalry also extends to Southeast Asia, where the United States is pursuing a broader AI push while facing competition from China.
