SHANGHAI: China will spearhead the creation of an international organisation to jointly develop artificial intelligence (AI), the country’s premier says, seeking to ensure that world-changing technology doesn’t become the province of just a few nations or companies.
AI harbours risks from widespread job losses to economic upheaval that require nations to work together to address, Premier Li Qiang told the World Artificial Intelligence Conference in Shanghai on Saturday.
