Some new information from Reuters on the AI safety discussions between the U.S. and China. Given the current climate it's seeming more and more likely that some new rules and agreements will emerge from this. - Both sides have discussed ​AI guardrails at a Track 1.5 dialogue ⁠in Beijing last week - 'Chinese officials have repeatedly stressed the importance of the AI talks in preparatory meetings with U.S. counterparts, and view them as a major deliverable of the U.S.-China leaders summit' - 'The U.S. wants to discuss cooperation on monitoring AI-directed cyberattacks, and has floated a proposal to ask U.S. and Chinese AI labs to "police themselves" and share information to prevent AI-linked cyberattacks.' - 'In the past week, China's cyberspace regulator publicly warned about "extreme AI loss ⁠of control risks" and a state media-affiliated blog criticized Anthropic, emphasizing that any limits on frontier AI should apply equally to Chinese and U.S. models.' - "The Chinese side has expressed concern around whether the U.S. has sufficient regulation around the most advanced AI models. Both sides are motivated to make sure ⁠they can manage a cross-border crisis effectively," said Scott Singer, co-director of the China AI Initiative at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace.
