BEIJING  The United States and China will hold talks over artificial intelligence in September, five people familiar with the matter said, as the rival superpowers grapple with how to mitigate the risks posed by each other’s increasingly powerful frontier models. 
The AI talks, a significant outcome of the summit between U.S. 
President Donald Trump and Chinese leader Xi Jinping in May, will likely take place before Xi’s planned Sept. 24 visit to the U.S., said the sources, who asked not to be named as the information is not public. 
The dates, however, have not ​been finalized, they said. 
As economic, political and military rivals, China and the U.S. have grown increasingly anxious over each other’s AI capabilities amid an accelerating global AI ‌race.
