US and China Forge AI Incident Hotline Amid Trade Talks

The US and China have made significant strides in managing the risks of their AI rivalry by agreeing to create an incident hotline for notifying each other about national security incidents related to artificial intelligence.

Top officials from Washington and Beijing met at JPMorgan Chase's headquarters in Manhattan, where Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent described the session as 'a very successful engagement with the Chinese on trade and AI.'

The new framework, called the US-China AI dialogue, marks a shift towards greater transparency between the world's top two AI powers.
