Twenty-nine countries signed the agreement as founding members, including Russia, Belarus, Serbia, Cuba, Brazil and Venezuela, as well as representatives from 10 African countries and 12 Asian countries.
According to China’s official Xinhua news agency, the organization’s headquarters will be located in Shanghai.
The signing ceremony took place in Shanghai on the eve of the annual World Artificial Intelligence Conference, where Chinese President Xi Jinping is expected to outline an ambitious vision for China’s role in global AI governance.
China proposed the creation of a Global AI Cooperation Organization at a conference last year, but so far no country has formally announced membership.
