Trade truce extension aside, was AI the real Xi-Trump summit breakthrough?

During a recent summit between US and Chinese leaders Xi and Trump, analysts noted that the event's significance may extend beyond immediate trade outcomes. Rather than focusing solely on a trade truce extension, observers pointed to the establishment of a new dialogue on artificial intelligence as a potentially major breakthrough.

According to analysis from the South China Morning Post, the discussions have the potential to stabilise bilateral relations. Furthermore, the engagement opens up space for further negotiations between the world's two largest economies.
