The U.S. and China will hold their first high-level talks on artificial intelligence within the “coming weeks,” U.S. Secretary of State Anthony Blinken said Friday, providing no update over the future of ******** social media giant TikTok.

During wide-ranging talks with ******** officials in Beijing, Blinken said the two sides had agreed to the first U.S.-China intergovernmental dialogue on AI to discuss the risks and safety concerns surrounding the emerging technology.

“Earlier today we agreed to hold the first US PRC talks on artificial intelligence to be held in the coming weeks, to share our respective views on risks and safety concerns around advanced AI and how best to manage them,” Blinken said during a press conference.

The U.S. imposed restrictions on Beijing’s ability to access high-end tech and is moving close to banning social media app TikTok, unless its ******** parent ByteDance sells it.

Speaking at a press conference, Blinken said that TikTok “did not come up” in the talks.
