TREE NEWS update: Chinese Vice Premier He Lifeng, the Chinese lead on economic and trade talks, met US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and US Trade Representative Jamieson Greer in New York on September 20 local time. The two sides discussed implementing consensus from previous rounds of trade consultations and promoting bilateral trade and investment, and held a dialogue on artificial intelligence-related issues.
US, China Hold Trade Talks in New York, Discuss AI
AI take
The notable detail is less the trade follow-through than the AI dialogue itself — a channel where the two economies have been moving toward decoupling rather than coordination. That it is being folded into the economic track, rather than handled separately, suggests both sides see AI governance as inseparable from commercial and investment terms. Whether this becomes a recurring technical channel or stays a one-off talking point is the open question.
