US Commerce Secretary says Trump likes TikTok, but app has to move to US ownership
U.S. President Donald Trump likes TikTok but the Chinese-owned short video app, used by some 170 million Americans, has to move to U.S. ownership, Secretary of Commerce Howard Lutnick said on Sunday. "The President really likes TikTok, and he said it over and over again, because, you know, it was a good way to communicate with young people," Lutnick said in an interview on Fox News Sunday with Shannon Bream. "But let's face it, you can't have the Chinese have an app on 100 million American phones, that is just not okay. So, it's got to move to American ownership, it's got to move to American technology, American algorithms," he said. "I know the President is positive towards TikTok, if it can move into American hands." Reuters

China's Premier Li proposes global AI cooperation organization
Chinese Premier Li Qiang on Saturday proposed creating an organization for global AI cooperation, urging countries to coordinate development and security efforts for the rapidly advancing technology. At the opening of the annual World Artificial Intelligence Conference (WAIC) in Shanghai, Li described AI as a new growth engine but noted fragmented governance. He stressed the need for greater coordination to develop a globally recognized framework for AI. The three-day event gathers industry leaders and policymakers amid rising technological competition between China and the United States, with AI as a key battleground. "Global AI governance remains fragmented. Countries differ greatly, especially in regulatory concepts and institutional rules," Li said. "We should coordinate to quickly form a global AI governance framework with broad consensus," he said. Reuters
