US, China to hold AI talks in September: Reuters

The discussions would focus on AI safety and governance as Washington and Beijing weigh risks from frontier models, sources said.

  • The United States and China are planning September artificial intelligence talks led by Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, likely before Chinese President Xi Jinping's planned September 24 visit to the U.S.
  • These discussions stem from a May summit between President Donald Trump and Xi Jinping, where leaders committed to pursuing an intergovernmental dialogue on artificial intelligence to address regulatory challenges.
  • People briefed on earlier exchanges suggest the agenda will likely cover artificial intelligence safety and governance, addressing shared concerns about misuse by criminals and management of increasingly capable frontier models.
  • The White House and Chinese government bodies, including the National Development and Reform Commission, have not officially confirmed the reports, leaving agenda details and participants under deliberation.
  • Analysts note the talks occur amid intense U.S.-China technological competition, with chip controls and export restrictions creating uncertainty; yet diplomatic visibility remains valuable despite thin trust between capitals.
