Deepseek AI expresses concern for national security, US officials say
As the Chinese app AIPS is attracted to Hordes of US usersTrump officials, deputies and experts in cyber security are concerned that technology could be a threat to US national security.
Introduction Deepseek in the United States Monday quickly became the brightest free check -up in the country at Apple’s App. Rollout also roamed Wall Street while investors fought to calculate the sudden occurrence of a cheap, generative ane of an open codes that can compete with artificial intelligence applications, such as Openai’s Chatgpt.
The NVIDIA shares, an American manufacturer of advanced AI-developing chips, dropped 17%, chopping about $ 600 billion from its market value-renamed one-day fall for the US section.
This explosive debut marked the “Buddha Call” on Monday. Speaking to journalists on Tuesday, the secretary of the Karolina Leavitt White House said that the National Security Council would examine potential implications of national security over the launch of Deepsek, noting that the administration would strive to “secure US AI dominance”.
Some legislators have also been concerned about access to the US users.
“Now I cannot allow the models of Chinese communist parties such as Deepsek to risk our national security and use our technology to improve their AI ambition,” a Republican in Michigan, a Republican in Michigan, chaired by the Committee of the Duplicate House for the Chinese Communist Party, said UA statement It is shared on social media. “We need to work on the rapid placement of stronger export control on technologies critical for the AI infrastructure of Deepseek.”
In the center of attention on Deepsek comes in the midst of growing tension over trade, geopolitics and other issues between the two superpowers. The US has already imposed significant export controls to China in an effort to restrain themselves in the production of Beijing’s semiconductor used in the development of advanced AI, with the latest curbers entered December.
Safety threat to users
Although the calls of Moolenar could be the first abolition of a possible Congress in Congress, Ross Burley-Sauto Non-Profit Center for Information Resistance-Experts has been increasing that Deepseek’s emergence in the US is increasing data for data for users. The Chinese Law gives Beijing broad authority to access data from companies based in China.
“More and more people will use it, and this will open the door for more and more personal data that will only be given [Chinese Communist Party] And basically sent to continental cinemas so they can inform them of their activities, “Burley told CBS News.
“What will use it is for campaigns to change behavior, campaign for misinformation, for really aiming to send messages about what the Western audience loves, what they do,” he added.
Deepseek, headquartered in the Chinese city of Hangzhou, in his privacy policy notes that the personal information he collects from the users is “on safe servers located in the People’s Republic of Kini”.
Under that policyThe company says it collects information, including the user “model of the device, the operating system, the keys or rhythms, IP address and the system language.” Deepseek also collects “information related to services, diagnostics and performance, including reports on falling and performance records,” the company said.
A key difference from a ticter
The fact that Deepseeek’s servers based in continental China is different from Tiktoca, Chinese Social Media Platform Congress wanted to ban Based on national security before President Trump signed an executive order last week, directing the Ministry of Justice not enforce the law in a period of 75 days.
In an effort to alleviate American regulatory problems, Tiktok’s home company, Byteted, 2022 moved All his US information -owned infrastructure owned by US Oracle software manufacturer.
The legislature prohibited by Tiktok – “The Law on the Protection of Americans from Foreign Opponents”, which President Biden signed the law of last April – assigns a wide range of federal government to break the technological platform owned by countries considered to the United States.
According to this law, the Congress may force a platform to take away its US foreign ownership operations, and can be closed if it qualifies as a threat. The law can be applied to any platform that allows users to share content; There are more than one million active users per month; is owned by a company located in a country under the control of an opponent; and the president determined to present a significant threat to national security.
But Deepseek can be considered a less threat given that, unlike the Tictok, it is a large model of the open code language, according to Matt Sheehan, a Chinese co -worker at Carnegie’s capture for international peace.
“[A] Many of these open code apps, open code models, you can actually use them directly on other platforms. Confusion is the main American AI company and are currently using the Deepseek version that you can use that has no privacy of data or security threats, “he told CBS News.
Cenzure progress?
One question that Deepseek users face outside China: censorship. For example, the Analysis of the CBS News has revealed that Deepsek has not returned any results because of the rapid search for information on the 1989 Tiananmen Protest Square and the Subsequent Massacre in Beijing.
Burley from the Center for Information Resistance considers such a suppression of information about the application that has been taken over by millions of users will pressure the policy creators to act.
“I think the Western government is – UK, Canada, now – to look at and see if it is wise that Apple Store and Android Store host this great linguistic model when it is so obviously curated to encourage Chinese narratives and censorship,” he said.
