China criticised calls from leading US technology executives to put the brakes on AI development and impose tighter curbs on Chinese model makers.
"Fearmongering, confrontation and vicious competition will only disrupt the process of global AI governance and serve the interests of no one," foreign ministry spokesman Guo Jiakun said in Beijing Monday.
"The development of AI bears on the common well-being of all humanity," he added, in response to a question on calls to slow frontier models.
