China is leading a 29-country coalition called WAICO focused on AI cooperation, while the US and China are engaged in a Chip War involving semiconductor shipment restrictions and retaliatory export bans on critical minerals and technology tied to AI development.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Semiconductors.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway
