The founder of ‘Zhifu AI’, one of China’s leading artificial intelligence (AI) companies, expressed his position that cutting-edge AI should be widely disclosed. As countries such as the United States and China move to restrict access to cutting-edge AI models for national security reasons, voices within the AI industry have emerged calling for maintaining openness. According to the U.S. Bloomberg News on the 12th (local time), Tang Jie Zhifu AI founder and professor at China's Tsinghua University said in a recent employee memo, "Cutting-edge AI should be widely accessible. Rather than barriers that prevent access to cutting-edge technology, the participation of various researchers and companies, transparent information sharing, and social surveillance can increase the safety of AI." Tang's remarks came amid recent news that Chinese authorities had discussed ways to restrict overseas access to cutting-edge AI models with officials from big tech companies Alibaba, ByteDance, and Zifu AI last month. In the United States, there is also a continuing movement to restrict foreign access to the country's cutting-edge AI technologies and models.
