World leaders were set to hold formal talks in Paris on Tuesday on artificial intelligence (AI), seeking elusive common ground on a technology subject to a global race for promised economic benefits. Sam Altman, the OpenAI chief set to speak in Paris later Tuesday, responded to the reported offer with a dry "no thank you" on X. For France, Macron vowed Monday to blast through red tape to build AI infrastructure in his bid to keep Europe competitive.
