So firstly, what I find quite interesting is domestically, Chinese people are very positive about AI.
Generally speaking, they see this as being good for productivity, good for innovation.
Uh, it can increase consumer surplus, it can allow China to export more AI hardware and models in the open weights ecosystem to the rest of the world, not just for the Chinese market.
There is an understanding at the elite level, call it amongst think tankers.
Or policymakers, that uh AI inclusiveness and AI safety are critical issues in the way that we do discourse about them in the West.
But I would say largely the feeling is very different.
It's more positive on the ground.
That being said,
I do sense, and this is uh very germane to what you just quoted from the Minister of State Security, that there is a feeling that if no one is at the head of AI governance globally, uh, we could be setting ourselves up for some kind of AI related risk, whether it's through the kind of autonomous rogue agents that we saw in the hugging face incident, or potentially even more catastrophic, it's any kind of bio.
Related or nuclear-related attacks that may have come out of AI rogue agents or state-sponsored AI agents as well.
This, I think, is going to be critical in the bilateral discussions between the Americans and the Chinese, both when she comes to the US on September 24th, but also potentially when Trump is slated to visit China in mid to late November for the Apex.
Shin Jen Summit.
So I would say largely that the Chinese have, compared to the Americans, that is, built up a more robust system of regulations.
They are still uh issuing and drafting some in the AI safety realm, especially now that we've seen more incidents come out uh in the last couple of months from the frontier models.
Um, not just the Hugging Face incident, but also the open claw incidents incident when you had bad actors uh uh doing supply.
Supply chain malware attacks or data exfiltration.
So there is a concern there that, you know, both, you know, agents need to be registered, models need to have have safety guardrails put in place in terms of the private sector being responsible again for those safety measures and precautions.
But also in terms of um making sure that uh they are at the forefront of what is actually happening in the broader.
What I would call
broader um US China strategic competition in technology.
