China, U.S. agree to $30 billion tariff cut, AI dialogue during Xi visit, Beijing says

The three-day summit between Xi and President Donald Trump, which ended on Friday, showcased personal diplomacy rather than big public breakthroughs.

Following President Donald Trump's request to US AI companies to not hasten technology development to maintain dominance over China, Washington and Beijing announced the establishment of a US-China Super Intelligence (SI) Dialogue on AI-related incidents this week. The decision came after a summit between the two leaders, where they discussed AI, bilateral trade, and the war in Iran.

The US and China agreed to use the term SI over AI in their communications. The next exchange is expected in November. President Trump expressed his willingness to leave the issue of Super Intelligence as it is, reflecting China's stance on human control of the technology. Chinese President Xi Jinping emphasized the need for human control over AI development, highlighting both nations' capability and responsibility to harness the technology for good.

The visit also saw agreements on US coal purchases, tariff concessions, and the arrival of Chinese pandas at a US zoo.
