According to the Wall Street Journal, the administration of US President Donald Trump is considering banning China's DeepSeek AI chatbot from government devices due to national security concerns.
The Wall Street Journal reported that U.S. officials have expressed concerns about how DeepSeek handles user data, storing it on servers located in China.
The Trump administration is considering banning China's DeepSeek AI chatbot from government devices due to national security concerns.
U.S. government officials are also considering banning the chatbot from app stores and placing limits on how U.S.-based cloud service providers can offer DeepSeek's AI models to customers. The Wall Street Journal source added that those discussions are still in their early stages.
DeepSeek's low-cost AI models triggered a major sell-off in global stock markets in January, as investors worried its emergence could threaten existing AI market leaders.
On Thursday, a group of 21 state attorneys general urged Congress to pass legislation banning government devices from downloading and using the DeepSeek artificial intelligence software.
With this move, the US is the latest country to join the list of nations that have imposed or are considering banning Chinese artificial intelligence applications. In mid-February, South Korean data protection authorities blocked users from downloading DeepSeek after the Chinese AI application admitted to disregarding certain personal data protection rules in South Korea.
Earlier, Australian Finance Minister Jim Chalmers urged Australians to exercise caution when using Chinese AI models, while Italy and Taiwan (China) instructed government employees not to use the DeepSeek chatbot.
