- Xi Jinping said China will take the lead in fostering AI and technology cooperation among BRICS countries, positioning Beijing as the bloc's tech anchor.
- Xi proposed an 'open-source AI zone' for BRICS and pushed 'Greater BRICS' economic ties to expand the group's global role beyond its original five members.
Why it matters: By volunteering China as the bloc's AI coordinator and proposing a shared open-source AI zone, Xi is making AI governance a BRICS-level initiative rather than a Western-led one — shifting where emerging-market tech standards get set.
