China will not slow its artificial intelligence development, officials said ahead of a summit between U.S. President Donald Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping. The two leaders are expected to meet soon. The talks may cover trade, technology, and AI competition. The United States has pushed for limits on advanced AI, citing security risks. China has rejected those calls. Beijing says it will keep investing in AI and set its own rules. It wants to be a global leader in the technology. The summit could shape how the world's two largest economies compete — or cooperate — on AI.
