Below, two authors provide a U.S. and Chinese perspective on steps the United States and China could take to build boundaries around acceptable uses of AI in national security. These recommendations, which reflect the authors’ views, are presented in anticipation of a forthcoming U.S.-China government-level dialogue on AI. Together, they explore how the United States and China could build on their existing commitment to maintain human control over nuclear weapons as AI becomes increasingly integrated into the military domain. The authors examine potential areas for further agreement, including ensuring human control over AI-enabled cyberattacks, as well as practical mechanisms and safeguards that could help translate shared principles into practice.
