Trump, Xi to Discuss AI at Sept. 24 White House Summit

Artificial intelligence has become a central point of US-China technology competition, spanning advanced semiconductors, computing capacity and governance. Direct engagement between US President Donald Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping would give the two governments a high-level channel to clarify their positions and manage disputes. The planned White House meeting is significant because it puts AI on the agenda for leader-level diplomacy and follows earlier discussions between Trump and Xi in Beijing.

Trump said Xi will visit Washington and the White House on Sept. 24, with AI expected to feature prominently in their talks. The two leaders plan to build on their previous conversation in Beijing and hold a deeper exchange on artificial intelligence. No specific agreements, policy initiatives or commercial commitments were disclosed, leaving the scope of the AI agenda and any potential deliverables unclear ahead of the summit.
