White House Accuses China of AI Technology Theft Ahead of Trump-Xi Summit
The White House Office of Science and Technology Policy has accused China of conducting 'industrial-scale' AI technology theft, just weeks before a scheduled summit between President Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping. The accusation, detailed in a memorandum, claims that foreign entities, primarily in China, are using proxies to steal American AI innovations. The memo warns that these actions undermine the integrity and reliability of AI models developed through such theft. The accusation comes as the U.S. and China prepare to discuss various issues, including the ongoing war in Iran and technology controls, during the upcoming summit.
