Fox News: American companies keep distance from China AI conference amid accessibility concerns
American companies keep distance from China AI conference amid accessibility concerns
American tech firms are noticeably pulling back from a major Chinese tech conference due to tensions between the two countries over emerging technology standards, particularly in artificial intelligence. The decrease in tech collaboration between the US and China is expected to continue, if not disappear altogether.

Beijing's plans to introduce laws requiring AI platforms to adhere to certain standards, including no discriminatory content or information that can harm privacy or intellectual property, have further raised concerns among tech experts. China also requires AI products to align with its socialist values, and failure to comply can result in fines, suspended services, or criminal investigations. These policies, along with other China-first policies, are making it difficult for developers to pass assessments and navigate the limitations of foreign content and state secrets laws.
