Donald Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping ended their Washington summit without a major agreement to pause what critics describe as the countries’ AI arms race, according to the Guardian Business.

The outlet said Xi’s state visit focused more on personal rapport and pageantry than on substantial deal-making, even with top tech executives present at a White House state dinner.

Trump and Xi also discussed the wars in Iran and Ukraine and the status of Taiwan.

The summit’s biggest policy announcement was a modest two-month extension of a trade truce.
