Ep 32 - Dueling AI development strategies

China and the US are both rapidly refining their approaches to global AI development, through newly released AI actions plans.

In this week’s Trivium China podcast, host Andrew Polk is joined by Trivium’s Head of Tech Policy Research Kendra Schaefer to discuss what’s in the latest plans.

The two discuss:

• The Trump administration’s pivot on chip sales to China, and the new guidance on chips laid out in the recently released US AI plan
• The conflicting messages on whether US export controls will loosen or tighten going forward – and Beijing’s perception of the issue
• How the US plans to get allied countries on board with its AI plan
• The competing visions around open-source AI development
• China’s pitch to the world for inclusive AI development, in its new AI plan
• And which horse the rest of the world will likely back, given the competing US and Chinese approaches

It’s good to be back!

• After taking an unscheduled break for a few weeks, we are glad to finally be back in your podcast feed!

Our apologies to listeners for the short hiatus, but this discussion was worth the wait. 

• Enjoy!
