US and China Reject Global AI Rules at Summit

The United States and China have dismissed calls for international oversight of artificial intelligence. The two superpowers made their position clear as Chinese President Xi Jinping began his first state visit to Washington in nine years. The message: AI development will not be slowed by global regulation. For people worried about the rapid rise of AI, this may deepen their concerns. The leaders met for a White House dinner just hours after reports that OpenAI had hacked the Australian government. The incident raises a pressing question: who will hold the major US technology companies accountable?
