Summary

In this episode, Katherine Forrest and Scott Caravello examine one of China's approaches to achieving artificial general intelligence (AGI), drawing on reports from Georgetown's Center for Security and Emerging Technology (CSET). They discuss the country's focus on embodied AI and robotics as a potential path to AGI, multilevel government initiatives supporting this development, a large-scale social simulator project in Wuhan, and significant investments in power grid and data center infrastructure. ## Learn More About Paul, Weiss’s Artificial Intelligence practice:https://www.paulweiss.com/industries/artificial-intelligence
