The China AI Power Report Act requires the Secretaries of Defense, Commerce, State, and other federal agencies to produce a comprehensive report assessing China's artificial intelligence capabilities and submit it to Congress within 180 days, then annually for three years thereafter. The report must detail China's advanced AI chip designers, semiconductor manufacturing and equipment makers, AI software companies, and AI models in development, along with their military and surveillance applications, international partnerships, and the effectiveness of current U.S. export controls on critical technologies. The assessment must cover 16 specific areas including China's military AI systems, research and development progress, computing infrastructure, humanoid robots, and funding sources, with particular attention to semiconductors critical to advanced AI systems. Within 90 days of submitting the initial report, relevant officials must brief congressional committees on the findings in both classified and unclassified formats. This legislation is designed to give Congress detailed intelligence about China's AI capabilities to inform U.S. policy decisions on technology competition and national security.
