China weighs export curbs on advanced AI models as U.S. talks loom
China's Kimi-K3 AI model sparks global tech selloff at Shanghai conference: Xi urges UN-led governance
China is considering imposing export restrictions on its advanced artificial intelligence models, such as Kimi K3 and Deepseek, following their success in Western markets. According to the Financial Times, the Chinese Ministry of Commerce has held discussions with companies including Alibaba, Bytedance, and Zhipu about limiting the transfer of central data abroad and restricting the use of these models outside China.
This move comes as Chinese AI models have begun to surpass some Western counterparts, raising concerns in Europe about reducing dependence on U.S. technology. Some European observers see the rise of Chinese AI models as a positive development, as it could help the continent reduce its reliance on U.S. technology. However, potential Chinese export restrictions on these models could impact this perception.
On July 22, 2026, China launched the World Artificial Intelligence Cooperation Organization (WAICO) in Shanghai. The organization includes five Southeast Asian countries—Cambodia, Indonesia, Laos, Malaysia, and Myanmar—as founding members. Chinese President Xi Jinping called for international cooperation on AI during the launch event, implicitly contrasting China's open-source models with the United States' closed models.
The U.S. and China are set to hold high-stakes AI talks in September, with Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent leading the U.S. delegation. This follows reports of Chinese advancements in AI and concerns about the global impact of these technologies.
