Twitter owner Elon Musk said Wednesday he has an optimistic outlook on China’s future and believes the communist country is ready to help write international rules for artificial intelligence.
Mr. Musk’s support of the communist country was met with skepticism by Rep. Mike Gallagher, Wisconsin Republican, who told Mr. Musk he viewed China as being on “team genocidal communism” and not “team humanity.” The billionaire entrepreneur in charge of Twitter, Tesla and SpaceX recently traveled to Beijing, meeting with China’s foreign minister on May 30. After the communist government eased restrictions on foreign businesses, Tesla opened the first totally foreign-owned auto factory in China in 2019.
“It’s actually important for us to worry about a Terminator future in order to avoid a Terminator future,” Mr. Musk told the lawmakers.The entrepreneur’s rosy outlook on China comes on the heels of the global COVID-19 pandemic that the U.S. intelligence community assessed emerged and spread from an exposure in November 2019 that emanated from Wuhan, China.
