U.S. lawmakers caution Microsoft Corp (NASDAQ:MSFT) against cozying up to China as it advances AI technology.
Microsoft President Brad Smith expressed increased collaboration with China's digital transformation, raising concerns among lawmakers about national security risks posed by the tech giant's profound presence in China.

This situation arrives amid U.S.-China tensions, intensifying as concerns about intellectual property theft and Taiwan's status escalate.

Marco Rubio to reevaluate business ties with China. Concerns over China's use of AI and technology for repressive purposes against Uyghurs compound the growing unease among U.S. policymakers.
