Ministry of Commerce Spokesperson Responds to Reporter’s Questions on US Alleged Plans to Investigate and Impose Sanctions on Chinese AI Companies

Odaily Odaily News: A spokesperson for the Ministry of Commerce stated that China urges the US to listen to the objective and rational voices of industries from both countries, correct its hegemonic mindset, and stop smearing and threatening sanctions against Chinese companies. For any actions that substantively harm China’s interests, China will take all necessary measures to firmly safeguard its legitimate rights and interests. It is hoped that the US will truly implement the consensus reached by the two heads of state, work with China in the same direction, strengthen dialogue and communication on artificial intelligence, jointly promote AI for good, and benefit both countries and the world through advancing and improving AI governance.
