Or he recognizes that the United States needs the output of Taiwan Semiconductor Corporation, the world's most advanced semiconductor maker.

Its facilities are overwhelmingly in Taiwan.

And of course, the AI chips that are at the core of the artificial intelligence revolution.

Now, this could play both ways.

You could imagine Xi Jinping saying, you know, I know how to deal with Donald Trump.

I just guarantee him that he's getting his chips if he just doesn't care about the rest of the island.

Well, usually we found that these discussions between

world leaders are pretty limited and pretty superficial.

During the Biden administration, it took months to negotiate a simple line or two between the US and China in which the two countries agreed never to allow their nuclear weapons to be directed by artificial intelligence programs.

So it seemed like a pretty basic thing.

Let's keep human beings running our nukes.

But the idea was to build on that

and try to get some common understandings about not letting artificial intelligence make life and death decisions when it comes to autonomous weapons.

And so there's sort of an understanding that we need a new form of arms control, but that everything that we did in the nuclear age doesn't apply very well in the AI age, because it's not as if

These are specific weapons that you can easily inspect or count or keep control of.

So these would largely be codes of conduct and very hard to enforce.

And it'll be interesting to see if the two leaders even touch on this topic or are even willing to send their aides off to discuss it.

You would think that it would be pretty obvious to both countries that they do need guardrails.

But you'll remember that the Trump administration came into power

saying one country is going to win this race and it's going to be whichever country allows industry to do its thing unfettered.
