AI race loss fears behind Trump’s planned September hosting of Xi
Managing the risks of frontier artificial intelligence (AI) models and protecting intellectual property are set to top the agenda when United States President Donald Trump hosts Chinese President Xi Jinping in Washington on September 24. They say Washington will further tighten its controls on AI development in China, but the Chinese consensus is that more curbs will only push Chinese firms to advance their self-sufficiency and build an AI ecosystem. Reuters first reported the planned AI dialogue on July 21, saying that the discussions would be the first official US-China AI dialogue under Trump, led on the American side by Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent.
