## Summary

As AI becomes a central part of how we learn history, politics, and culture, the United States and China are competing over systems that will shape what billions believe. China is developing an AI system to support authoritarian control, while the U.S. must take action before it's too late. Research shows that Chinese models often provide biased or inaccurate information, potentially influencing millions of users. The stakes are high: political power can enter and shape AI systems, leading to potential biases in user responses and institutional decisions. To maintain leadership in advanced AI, the U.S. needs to improve transparency and develop alternative solutions.

## Key points

- China developing AI for authoritarian control
