The move comes amid mounting alarm over AI safety, from summer security breaches to warnings from Anthropic staff and calls from industry leaders like Sam Altman and Dario Amodei for a development slowdown. A formal US-China notification channel would mark a rare instance of cooperation between rival AI superpowers, even as the Trump administration resists broader domestic regulation.
- US and China are forming a dialogue to share warnings about dangerous AI incidents.
- The talks build on commitments made during Trump's May trip to Beijing.
- The effort follows growing industry alarm, including calls from AI leaders for slower development.
