US President Joe Biden, right, and Yoon Suk Yeol, South Korea's president, shake hands at a news conference in the Rose Garden of the White House during a state visit in Washington, DC, US, on Wednesday, April 26, 2023. The US will strengthen the deterrence it provides South Korea against nuclear threats, including by deploying a nuclear-armed submarine to the country, in turn securing a pledge from Seoul to honor commitments to not pursue its own atomic arsenal.

The artificial intelligence robot, AI-MATHS, developed by Chengdu Zhunxingyunxue Technology, which takes part in the math test during the 2017 National College Entrance Exam, also known as Gaokao, is pictured in Chengdu city, southwest China's Sichuan province, 7 June 2017. A robot sat for the math test during China's national college entrance exam in the southwestern city of Chengdu on Wednesday (7 June 2017). The robot, AI-MATHS, consisting of 11 servers, was developed by Chengdu Zhunxingyunxue Technology. It completed two versions of the exam's math test on Wednesday afternoon. There are several versions of the tests in different regions of China. The robot finished the Beijing test paper in 22 minutes, scoring 105 points out of 150 points, without Internet support. It scored 100 points on another version of the test. "It would take two hours for a human to finish the test. I hope next year it can improve its performance on logical reasoning and computer algorithms and score over 130," said Lin Hui, company CEO. In February, the robot scored 93 on one math test, slightly higher than the passing grade of 90. The company participated in a project of China's Ministry of Science and Technology, which plans to develop gaokao robots. Under the plan, by 2020, AI robots will be smart enough to gain admission to leading universities such as Peking University and Tsinghua University through the entrance exam.No Use China.
