C HINA will provide developing countries with 5,000 opportunities for artificial intelligence (AI) training and seminars over the next five years, President Xi Jinping said Friday. Xi made the announcement when delivering a keynote speech at the opening ceremony of the 2026 World AI Conference and High-Level Meeting on Global AI Governance held in Shanghai.
He said China will develop international AI application cooperation centres with ASEAN, the League of Arab States, the African Union, the Community of Latin American and Caribbean States, the Shanghai Cooperation Organization and BRICS. China will help 30 countries utilize the AI-powered MAZU meteorological early warning system to protect people’s lives and property around the world, Xi added.
In another development, twenty-nine countries on Thursday signed an agreement in Shanghai on establishing the World Artificial Intelligence Cooperation Organization (WAICO). The WAICO will be an independent intergovernmental international organization headquartered in Shanghai, according to the agreement.
