On August 5, a group of seven US Republican Senators sent a letter asking the US Department of Commerce to assess potential data security risks related to open-source artificial intelligence (AI) models developed by Chinese companies, including the AI ​​model of DeepSeek.

The representative who wrote this letter is Senator Ted Budd.

In the letter, the senators said the US Department of Commerce needs to assess in detail whether applications using Chinese AI models collect data and transfer it to servers located in China.

The senators also said the Commerce Department needs to clarify whether these AI models illegally accessed semiconductor chips subject to export controls under US government regulations or violated the terms of using US technology to develop AI capabilities.

Previously, in February, bipartisan US lawmakers submitted a bill to ban the use of AI tools from the Hangzhou-based company DeepSeek, Zhejiang Province (China) on US federal government devices and networks due to concerns about user data security.

The bill also proposes prohibiting companies that contract with the federal government from using DeepSeek's AI models in the course of government projects.

Last January, US Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick said that DeepSeek may have used US AI technology and vowed to impose restrictions.

The US Department of Commerce has not yet commented on the above information.

DeepSeek made headlines in the tech world in early 2025 when it claimed its AI inference models were on par with, or even surpassing, some of the leading US models, but at a much lower cost.

DeepSeek's rapid development has raised concerns that China is narrowing the gap with the US in the field of AI, and may soon even take the lead, threatening the technological position of the world's number one economy./ .
