US and China in Regular Talks to Shape AI Agenda

The United States and China are in regular talks to iron out details of a framework announced last month for handling AI-related incidents and institutionalising bilateral dialogue.

The technical teams of the two countries aim to make AI cooperation a potential deliverable when presidents Xi Jinping and Donald Trump meet on the sidelines of the Apec summit in Shenzhen next month.

Three sources said the artificial intelligence issue had taken on a more prominent role in discussions between the two sides as they explored ways to formalise cooperation in the field.
