Trump and Xi seek to prevent an AI arms race

President Donald Trump and China's Xi Jinping are meeting in a high-stakes summit focused on preventing an artificial intelligence arms race, with Trump claiming the U.S. leads China in AI development. The talks aim to build rapport between the two leaders. The challenge recalls Reagan and Gorbachev's 1980s summits, where personal diplomacy helped ease nuclear proliferation fears and led to arms control deals. Experts hope Trump and Xi can achieve similar understanding to mitigate AI security risks. UN Secretary-General António Guterres warns that global power is shifting from states to corporations and machines, complicating such negotiations. Some analysts caution that Trump's narrow view of power may worsen rather than solve these problems.
