President Donald Trump said on Monday he looks forward to seeing China’s Xi Jinping later this month, saying he will remind his rival that the United States is leading in artificial intelligence as the two sides navigate tensions over trade and technology.

While addressing a small business summit at the White House, Trump characterized the technological rivalry between the two countries as competitive but cordial.

“We’re leading China in AI. And I’m going to go see President Xi in two weeks. I look forward to that… We have very friendly competition, but it’ll be actually a very important trip," Trump said.
