Recently, China and the United States announced that they will hold the first meeting of the China-US government dialogue on artificial intelligence (AI) in Geneva, Switzerland on May 14th, local time, in order to deepen cooperation and jointly address challenges. The purpose of this meeting is to engage in in-depth exchanges on technology risks and global governance in the field of AI, and explore other issues of mutual concern. The holding of this dialogue is a concrete implementation of the consensus reached by the heads of China and the United States at their meeting in San Francisco, reflecting the importance attached by both sides to strengthening cooperation in the field of AI. Against the backdrop of rapid global development of AI technology, China and the United States, as leaders in this field, have the responsibility and obligation to jointly promote the healthy development of AI technology and bring more benefits to human society. It is worth mentioning that according to the Global AI Index rankings for 2023 released by the British institution Tortoise Media last year, the United States scored full marks in the three key indicators of investment, innovation, and practice, with a total score of 100, ranking first. This achievement is largely due to the highly active commercial investment and vigorous development of startups in the United States. China, with a score of 62, closely follows the United States. Since the first release of this ranking in 2020, China and the United States have consistently ranked among the top two in global AI development. Sam Altman, CEO of OpenAI, publicly stated in June last year that China has the world's best AI talent and expects Chinese AI researchers to make significant contributions in this field. This view has been widely recognized in the industry. At the same time, according to a report by the American think tank Center for Security and Emerging Technology (CSET), China and the United States have the closest cooperation in AI research and have jointly promoted many important advances in this field. While competition and cooperation coexist between China and the United States in the field of AI, both sides recognize that sustainable development and widespread application of AI technology can only be achieved through strengthening cooperation and jointly addressing challenges. The holding of the China-US government dialogue on artificial intelligence will provide an important platform for communication between the two sides and help promote deep cooperation and common development in the field of AI.
