The idea of slowing the race runs into a simple fact: the other participant in the race does not agree, and instead of a pause offers to hand out open SI to the whole developing world.

Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Guo Jiakun said that "intimidation, confrontation and malicious competition only undermine global SI governance"; the Global Times called Amodei's proposal, which also includes restrictions on selling technology to China, a "Cold War scenario." Minister of State Security Chen Yixin, however, acknowledged that China needs to speed up building a system to prevent SI risks. At the BRICS summit in New Delhi, Xi Jinping offered the bloc's countries help in developing open models.
