"I think, today, [China is] probably two years behind the top [AI] models [from the US]."

"Where China sits [in AI], I think, is very far behind the US."

"The United States is in a strong position to win the essential [AI] race with China."

"China will dominate AI."

"The combination with China's self-made chips + AI infrastructure stack will put China ahead of the US."

China would "undoubtedly come out on top [in the US-China AI race]."

"[I]t seems like the United States is really far ahead [when it comes to generative AI]."

"China will lead the world in AI development."

In 2025, "China will start to lead the AI race (as a consequence of leading the open-source AI race)."

Will China Surpass the US in AI?

U.S. President Donald Trump postponed the signing of an executive order on AI hours before a scheduled White House ceremony on Thursday, saying he "didn't like certain aspects of it" and feared it could undermine U.S. competitiveness with China.

U.S. President Donald Trump postponed the signing of an executive order on AI hours before a scheduled White House ceremony on Thursday, saying he "didn't like certain aspects of it" and feared it could undermine U.S. competitiveness with China.

The proposed order would have established a voluntary framework for AI developers to share advanced models with the federal government between 14 and 90 days before public release, allowing agencies to assess cybersecurity risks and vulnerabilities.

The proposed order would have established a voluntary framework for AI developers to share advanced models with the federal government between 14 and 90 days before public release, allowing agencies to assess cybersecurity risks and vulnerabilities.

The draft order envisioned the Treasury Department leading a voluntary "clearinghouse" with AI companies and agencies to identify and fix security vulnerabilities, with the National Security Agency (NSA) playing a key role in determining which models would require government scrutiny.

Concerns about AI cybersecurity risks intensified following Anthropic's release of its Mythos model. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell convened an urgent meeting with Wall Street CEOs in April to warn them of the risks.

The planned order also called for a surge in cybersecurity and AI hiring across government agencies, following cuts to the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency, and would have directed the Defense Department to secure key telecommunications systems.

The postponement comes as some Trump advisers reportedly favor industry-friendly AI policies while others push mandatory government review. Earlier this week, more than 60 conservative groups, including from figures like Steve Bannon, had written to Trump urging mandatory AI testing and government approval.

Trump made the right call pulling back an executive order that would've forced AI companies to hand their advanced models over to federal bureaucrats. Slowing down American innovation just to satisfy regulatory instincts is a losing strategy when China is right on the country's heels. Keeping government out of the way is exactly how the U.S. stays ahead.

The AI executive order got killed not by sound policy thinking but by a handful of tech CEOs whispering in Trump's ear the night before the signing. Safety advocates who finally thought Washington was getting serious about AI guardrails got left hanging, and now there's no clear timeline for when — or whether — any of this happens. Letting industry egos dictate federal policy is a dangerous way to govern.

Trump Halts AI Executive Order Over China Concerns

The AI order deserved to be delayed. Trump was right to reject a plan that would've forced companies to hand advanced models over to federal bureaucrats, risking America's lead over China. Tech leaders like Andreessen rightly sounded the alarm that the proposal threatened AI freedom and innovation, and Trump listened instead of letting regulators slow a booming industry.

The AI executive order got killed because anti-"doomer" tech billionaires like Musk and Zuckerberg lobbied against it overnight. Safety advocates, including MAGA-aligned figures like Steve Bannon, who thought Washington was finally getting serious about AI guardrails got left hanging. For now, the accelerationists have won out, and there's no clear timeline for when, or whether, stronger oversight and testing requirements will ever happen.
