Trump Rejects AI Rules at Xi Summit as CEOs Urge U.S.-China Cooperation

Summary
At the start of his summit with Xi Jinping, Donald Trump brushed aside calls for artificial-intelligence rules, signaling little interest in a joint U.S.-China approach.
That stance came after chief executives from top AI companies urged Washington to work with Beijing to contain the technology’s risks.
Xi, by contrast, called for “human control” of AI and acknowledged its dangers, aligning with recent public signals from Chinese officials that regulation is needed.
The split underscored a widening gap over AI governance just as industry leaders push the world’s two biggest powers toward coordinated safeguards.
