The U.S. and China are facing serious risks arising from artificial intelligence (AI), but mutual distrust between the two countries has halted the necessary cooperation in this area. Experts warn that this lack of collaboration could have dangerous consequences for cybersecurity and emerging technologies.
Challenges of Non-Cooperation
In recent years, significant advancements in artificial intelligence have made this technology a strategic priority for countries. However, while both countries seek the highest level of progress in this field, political and economic tensions between them have reduced the possibility of cooperation. This situation leads the two major powers, in their quest for dominance over emerging technologies, to compete rather than collaborate.

Risks Arising from AI
Experts believe that if the U.S. and China cannot reach an agreement on cooperation in artificial intelligence, significant risks will arise in various areas, including national and social security. For example, the use of AI in military contexts could lead to military conflicts and undermine global stability. Additionally, the lack of agreement on ethical principles and global standards in this field could result in the misuse of emerging technologies and negative consequences for human society.
Given that both countries are developing and implementing AI technologies, initiating serious and specialized dialogues in this area could help reduce risks and enhance cybersecurity. Experts believe that establishing a global framework for cooperation in artificial intelligence could aid in better managing this technology and serve the interests of both countries.
