US and China Launch Dialogue on Artificial Intelligence Risks
Governments seek communication channels to prevent major incidents while maintaining a tech race for global dominance.
US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent stated that the United States and China must proceed with caution regarding cooperation on artificial intelligence. The American government has established a new dialogue mechanism focused on superintelligence to prevent misunderstandings between the two systems.
Both nations intend to exchange best practices for testing advanced models before their commercial release. The primary goal is to ensure that human judgment remains in control of the technology. Both parties have committed to providing alerts regarding serious incidents involving artificial intelligence models.
Bessent emphasized that the interests of the two powers do not align on every point. The American government resists expanding restrictions that could compromise its competitive edge against Chinese progress. China, for its part, rejects measures aimed at curbing the development of frontier models.
This dialogue takes place during a period of intense competition for global leadership in the sector. The two countries are expected to meet again during the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation summit. The collaboration seeks to reconcile the demands of competition with the responsibilities of global technological leadership.
