EXCLUSIVE: Beijing is looking at curbing overseas access to China's top AI models, sources say
Chinese authorities have held meetings with top tech firms over the past month about potentially restricting overseas access to China's most advanced AI models, including those yet to be released, three people familiar with the discussions said.

Why China is giving away its best AI models
Chinese labs like Moonshot are forcing OpenAI, Google, and Anthropic to rethink what they lock away.

Chinese AI models are gaining ground with U.S. companies as OpenAI, Anthropic costs surge
Recent model releases from Chinese companies including DeepSeek and Z.ai are seen by many as highly competitive compared to leading U.S. frontier systems.

China's Artificial General Intelligence | Center for Security and Emerging Technology
Recent op-eds comparing the United States’ and China’s artificial intelligence (AI) programs fault the former for its focus on artificial general intelligence (AGI) while praising China for its success in applying AI throughout the whole of society. These op-eds overlook an important point: although China is outpacing the United States in diffusing AI across its society, China has by no means de-emphasized its state-sponsored pursuit of AGI.
