Biden and Xi agree on human control of nuclear weapons in APEC meeting

US President Joe Biden and Chinese President Xi Jinping met at the APEC Summit in Peru and agreed that humans should control the use of nuclear weapons, not artificial intelligence. This marks a significant discussion on AI and nuclear policy between the two leaders. The meeting is seen as a potential last face-to-face encounter while Biden is in office. The leaders emphasized the importance of maintaining human oversight in nuclear decisions and the need for responsible development of military AI technology. Despite this dialogue, nuclear arms negotiations between the US and China have stalled. Tensions remain high, especially with Donald Trump’s recent election victory and his administration's expected tough stance on China.
