The Chinese University of Hong Kong's Zheng Yongnian talks about "lobsters": technology needs to be implemented, and safety should also be "keep an eye out".

On March 22, during the China Development Forum 2026, Cheung Wing Man, Dean of the School of Public Policy at the Chinese University of Hong Kong (Shenzhen), used the recent example of the OpenClaw open-source intelligent body to discuss the relationship between technology and security. He said, "Applications like 'lobster' are entering society and everyday life, indicating that technology is being implemented, which is a good thing. However, technology cannot only focus on acceptance; security and development must be equally important." He added, "We need to accept this technology while also maintaining a level of suspicion towards it." Cheung humorously stated that simply accepting technology is not enough, and while promoting its implementation, we must also firmly uphold the bottom line of security. (China News Service)
