China’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs on Monday hit back at a call from the head of Anthropic for the U.S. to curb China’s artificial intelligence capabilities, which he issued as he argued for a global slowdown on AI development.

“Fearmongering, confrontation and vicious competition will only disrupt the process of global AI governance which serves no one’s interest,” spokesperson Guo Jiakun said at a regular press conference on Monday.
