美中争相拉攏东南亚加入AI阵营

美国和中国近期加大对东南亚国家的拉攏力度，试图将其纳入各自主导的人工智能阵营。1中国在今年7月于上海成立了"世界人工智慧合作组织"，已有29个国家签署协定成为创始成员国，习近平主席亲自出席了世界人工智慧大会。1相比之下，美国推动的"矽盛世"目前拥有24个会员，其中东南亚地区仅有新加坡和菲律宾两个成员。1

为争夺更多支持，中国官员向各国表示，签署加入成为创始会员将可获得"独家优惠"。1与此同时，美国官员私下对相关国家加入"世界人工智慧合作组织"表达了不满。1这一竞争局面给长期奉行不选边站政策的东南亚国家带来了考验。1

The United States and China are intensifying efforts to draw Southeast Asian countries into their respective artificial intelligence alliances, reflecting an escalating competition between the two powers over AI leadership.1 The US is promoting Southeast Asian participation in "Silicon Prosperity," while China seeks to bring these nations into the "World Artificial Intelligence Cooperation Organization."1

China's World Artificial Intelligence Cooperation Organization was established in July in Shanghai, with 29 countries signing on as founding members.1 President Xi Jinping personally attended the World Artificial Intelligence Conference.1 Chinese officials have informed countries that signing on as founding members would grant them "exclusive benefits."1 By contrast, Silicon Prosperity currently has 24 members, with only Singapore and the Philippines representing Southeast Asia in this bloc.1

The competition presents a challenge to Southeast Asian nations that have historically pursued non-alignment policies.1 US officials have privately expressed dissatisfaction with countries' participation in the World Artificial Intelligence Cooperation Organization,1 underscoring the strategic stakes both powers see in the global AI landscape.
