Xi's AI Promise: A Glimpse into China's Global Aspirations Chinese President Xi Jinping recently pledged to help Brics nations develop and apply open source large language models, as well as build smart manufacturing factories.
This move has generated a mix of curiosity and skepticism among observers. The significance of these initiatives is underscored by the fact that Xi highlighted them during the Brics summit in New Delhi.
By emphasizing the potential for economic growth and technological advancement through open source AI models and smart manufacturing, Xi implicitly acknowledges the limitations of traditional development aid.
