China stole our AI. Now Xi has to face Trump

On Sept. 8, U.S. security agencies issued a joint advisory accusing six Chinese companies of extracting the capabilities of the most advanced U.S. AI models at an industrial scale, according to the Washington Examiner.

The advisory will serve as the backdrop when Chinese President Xi Jinping arrives at the White House later this week to meet with President Donald Trump.
