U.S. to tell partners they must pick sides in AI race with China: Reuters

- The State Department is preparing to tell 35 signatories of the "AI Opportunity Statement" they must pick sides in the artificial intelligence race, warning exclusion from the US-led coalition if they join Beijing's competing framework.
- Washington launched the Pax Silica initiative last year to secure AI-related supply chains, while Chinese President Jinping launched a rival "World Artificial Intelligence Cooperation Organization" in Jul to challenge US-led influence.
- Kazakhstan, a key source of critical minerals, has joined both initiatives, alarming Washington. An official told Reuters, "You can't have it both ways," emphasizing nations cannot credibly partner with conflicting technology ecosystems.
- By forcing this choice, Washington aims to starve China of resources for sophisticated AI-related technologies. The draft letter urges countries to "choose deliberately" regarding their Pax Silica Declaration membership.
