The plans follow Beijing’s criticism of calls by US technology executives to slow development of the most advanced AI models. Foreign Ministry spokesperson Guo Jiakun, asked on Sept. 14 about Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei’s slowdown proposal, said: “Fearmongering, confrontation and vicious competition will only disrupt the process of global AI governance which serves no one’s interest.” The state backed Global Times separately called Amodei’s proposal a “Cold War playbook” targeting China. Amodei’s call drew support from OpenAI CEO Sam Altman and Elon Musk. He proposed independent safety evaluators inside AI companies, common standards among firms in democratic countries and global coordination, including with China. He also advocated tighter US chip controls on China to preserve the American AI lead, saying slower development should allow more time for safeguards rather than halt model training." --- # China Plans to Boost AI Chip Design and Computing Technology > [Open the canonical story]() **Published:** 2026-09-15T06:03:12.000Z **Category:** Chips **Topics:** chips, infra, anthropic, openai, elon\-musk, china, regulation ## Summary China’s Ministry of Industry and Information Technology will promote AI chip design and computing technology, including advances in edge AI and high end memory chips\.
