00:03The U.S. and China are weighing an AI safety dialogue as President Trump prepares to meet
00:08Chinese President Xi Jinping, with officials discussing a channel for incidents reaching
00:12the national security level, according to CNBC.
00:15Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent raised the proposal with Chinese Vice Premier He Li
00:20Feng over the weekend.
00:21The talks come as concerns grow over autonomous AI systems and their cyber capabilities.
00:26Potential areas of agreement include common AI safety definitions, frameworks for powerful
00:32models, and an emergency communication mechanism.
00:35However, an agreement to slow the pace of AI development is considered extremely unlikely.
00:40Tensions remain over U.S. restrictions on advanced AI chips and accusations that Chinese companies
00:46use distillation to train models on U.S. systems.
