Xi called AI development \"a symphony of international cooperation\" rather than a solo performance by any single country, urging openness and open-source collaboration.\n\nXi announced China will offer developing nations 5,000 AI training and seminar opportunities, expand cooperation with ASEAN, the League of Arab States and the African Union, and give 30 countries access to a Chinese-built AI meteorological early-warning system. The conference drew more than 1,100 companies and 1,400 guests, according to state media.\n\nThe speech landed hours after a prime-time address by US President Trump criticizing China, and as tightening US export controls continue to squeeze Beijing's access to advanced chips — a backdrop that frames Xi's cooperation pitch as a counter-narrative to Washington's AI rivalry stance."}}
