‘Cold War Playbook’: China Destroys U.S’ Ai Strategy After Trump Vows To Beat Xi; Musk Dragged In
China has rejected calls from influential American technology leaders to deliberately slow the development of frontier artificial-intelligence systems. The dispute follows Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei’s essay, We Must Pace the Frontier, which warns that AI capabilities are advancing faster than safety measures. His intervention was backed by OpenAI CEO Sam Altman and Elon Musk. But the proposal also urges Washington to restrict China’s access to advanced chips and other technology required to train powerful models. Beijing argues that this transforms an AI safety initiative into a strategy for containing China and preserving American technological dominance. Donald Trump has also rejected slowing development, insisting that the United States must remain ahead of China. The result is an accelerating superpower race in which both sides recognise the danger—but neither appears willing to pause first.
