There are certain materials that aren't just white but also specifically radiate heavily in IR bands that the atmosphere is particularly transparent to and so can actually stay sub-ambient temperature while in sunlight. See, for example, https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1002/eom2.12284
But adding conventional AC is never going to cool down the world.
