Trump and Xi agree on trade truce extension after 'productive' talks
President Donald Trump announced Friday that "extraordinary things" will happen following his "very productive" meeting with Chinese President Xi Jinping, who concluded a three-day official visit to the United States. Trump said on Truth Social that Xi agreed with renaming "artificial intelligence" as "superintelligence," a topic central to their talks. The Thursday state dinner included tech leaders Elon Musk, Sam Altman, Jensen Huang, Tim Cook, Sundar Pichai, Jeff Bezos, and Michael Dell, though Anthropic's Dario Amodei was absent. The leaders extended their trade truce until January 10, easing tariff escalations and some restrictions on rare earths and high-tech goods. Trump stated both nations will maintain current AI development pace, with the U.S. holding an advantage while China faces chip access limits.
