From the ancient Silk Road to today’s Digital Silk Road, China is finding new ways to share the benefits of its development and innovation with the world.

Francis Gurry, vice-chair of the World Internet Conference, told China News Network that China is once again in a position to create opportunities for other countries in the digital age.

From brain-computer interfaces that could help people regain movement or speech, to open-source and open-weight AI models, 5G networks and data infrastructure, Gurry said China is helping make digital technologies more accessible and their benefits more widely shared.
