US-China AI Hotline Won't Be Ready for Trump-Xi Meeting

Trump and Xi will discuss a proposed AI notification system between the US and China at a White House dinner. Treasury Secretary Bessent announced the plan with Vice Premier He Lifeng, but officials expect weeks of work and China has not yet committed.

• Bessent and He Lifeng announced the AI notification system
• Framework could be ready for Shenzhen talks in two months
• China has been noncommittal and incident criteria remain unclear
• Naming a new US AI czar may further delay the system
