Chinese President Xi Jinping used the APEC summit in Gyeongju on November 1, 2025, to propose the creation of a "World Artificial Intelligence Cooperation Organization." According to Reuters, this organization is intended to set global AI governance rules and promote AI as a "global public good." The move is seen as an attempt by China to position itself as an alternative to the US in the global tech and AI governance arena, offering its own approach to international regulation.
