As global competition in artificial intelligence (AI) intensifies, China has unveiled a comprehensive AI action plan to bolster its technological sovereignty and counter U.S. dominance in the sector.

As part of the plan, Chinese Premier Li Qiang proposed a new international organization to champion cooperation on artificial intelligence.

China’s AI messaging is starting to sound like “AI for all,” but the United States is split on its own tactic.

China's Vice Foreign Minister Ma Zhaoxu told a roundtable of representatives from over 30 countries, including Russia, South Africa, Qatar, South Korea and Germany, that China wanted the organisation to promote pragmatic cooperation in AI and was considering putting its headquarters in Shanghai.

Peter Cowhey, Dean Emeritus and Qualcomm Chair Emeritus of the School of Global Policy and Strategy at UC San Diego, discusses China's proposal for a global framework for the governance of AI, and the similarities between the global buildout of AI and internet infrastructure.

The AI Action Plan offers a path, but not a concrete plan, for what the administration is thinking when it comes to chip export restrictions.

This is bad news for artists and media companies that want a say in how AI companies use their intellectual property.

The White House on Wednesday released its promised "AI Action Plan," a sweeping agenda aimed at promoting the United States' dominance in artificial intelligence.
