Bridging AI Efforts: A Sino-American Imperative

Stephen Orlins, president of the NCUSCR, emphasized the need for China and the US to collaborate on AI technologies, citing that duplicated efforts were unproductive for their citizens. His remarks came during the China Development Forum in Beijing and were reported by the Financial News.

Stephen Orlins, president of the National Committee on United States-China Relations (NCUSCR), underlined the importance of collaboration between China and the United States in the field of artificial intelligence. Speaking at the annual China Development Forum in Beijing, Orlins stressed that duplicating AI initiatives provides little benefit to the citizens of either country.

Orlins' comments were captured in a video clip and disseminated by Financial News, a media outlet owned by the Chinese central bank. His remarks come amidst growing dialogue around the strategic advantage and ethical implications of AI at a global scale.

The emphasis was clear: instead of running parallel initiatives, both countries should leverage each other's advancements to ensure progress in AI technology benefits society broadly and avoids unnecessary competition.
