TECH TITANS AT TRUMP TABLE: Altman, Zuckerberg Dine With Xi at State Dinner...

OpenAI's Sam Altman and Meta's Mark Zuckerberg joined other major tech executives at a dinner between Donald Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping, a rare gathering that signals tech leaders are positioning themselves for potential influence as U.S.-China relations and tech regulation shift under the new administration. The dinner itself represents an unusual moment of diplomacy where Silicon Valley titans appear willing to engage directly with both American and Chinese power, even as tensions between the two countries have shaped tech policy, supply chains, and competition in AI over the past several years.
