New Facts: U.S. Proposes AI Safety Notification Mechanism
After about eight hours of preparatory talks in New York, the United States proposed creating a system for Washington and Beijing to share alerts about artificial intelligence incidents that could threaten national security. The plan would sit inside a new channel for AI talks between the two countries and is being put to Donald Trump and Xi Jinping at their summit in Washington this week.
Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent made the proposal in a meeting with Vice Premier He Lifeng at JPMorgan Chase’s headquarters, joined by U.S. Trade Representative Jamieson Greer and China’s chief trade negotiator Li Chenggang. Both sides agreed to keep meeting on AI. China’s official readout noted AI discussions but did not mention the notification plan.
The proposed alert system would not touch current U.S. restrictions on advanced chips and semiconductor manufacturing equipment.
