Chinese Premier Li Qiang warns that governments risk “losing control” of frontier technologies such as artificial intelligence if they do not strengthen regulation, speaking at the World Economic Forum in Dalian—often described as “Summer Davos.” In remarks reported by multiple outlets, Li says delays in AI governance could lead to serious consequences. He frames the issue as both a security and economic challenge. The coverage highlights concerns that AI could disrupt labor markets and that it may also increase security risks, including potential misuse in conflicts and the possibility of breaches to cyber defenses.

Both reports characterize the warning as part of broader international discussions around how states should respond to rapid advances in AI, emphasizing the need for regulatory action rather than allowing governance to lag behind technological change.
