Presidents Donald Trump and Xi Jinping addressed their intense competition over artificial intelligence on Thursday during a summit aimed at keeping ties between the world’s largest economies on track. How the leaders are handling AI is one of the key questions looming over the state visit, with the US president arguing for unfettered development to keep his nation’s edge. China, meanwhile, has criticized American export controls on semiconductors and other inputs that it argues constrains its companies. By contrast, China’s top leader indicated some openness to setting boundaries.

President Donald Trump welcomes China's Xi Jinping to Washington today for a state visit that looks more focused on pageantry than policy, with low expectations for breakthroughs on long-standing feuds. The summit will bring together a robust gathering of US corporate leaders, but no comparable delegation from China, raising questions about the prospects of even any new business. One area Trump and Xi may find common ground is AI safety. While Silicon Valley debates the possibility of the technology wiping out humanity, Washington and Beijing have signaled no intention to slow down development. Meanwhile, energy risks and related inflationary impacts tied to conflict in the Middle East continue to weigh on global economies.

On today's episode:
Heidi Crebo-Rediker, Senior Fellow for Geoeconomics at the Council on Foreign Relations
Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez
Kyle Stock, Bloomberg News Senior Correspondent
Mark Gurman, Bloomberg News Managing Editor for Global Consumer Tech
