The Trump administration is weighing a ban on Chinese AI chatbot DeepSeek from U.S. government devices over national-security concerns, a person familiar with the matter said on Friday, APA reports citing Reuters.
U.S. officials are worried about DeepSeek's handling of user data, which the company says it stores in servers located in China, according to the Wall Street Journal, which first reported the news.
Administration officials are also considering banning the chatbot from app stores and putting limits on how U.S.-based cloud service providers could offer DeepSeek's AI models to their customers, the Journal said, adding that those discussions are still at an early stage.
