The other day, I wondered whether the US should consider a DeepSeek ban amid all the excitement. It wasn't just about US-based AI chatbots being banned in China, including ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, Meta AI, and others. It's also about the DeepSeek privacy policy since all data is sent in China. Also, there's the DeepSeek censorship related to sensitive topics for China, and the risk of China using AI algorithms in its own interest, similar to how TikTok allegedly operated its algorithm.
While I started wondering whether a US ban on DeepSeek was imminent, it looks like localized bans were in effect long before then. The US Navy issued an order on Friday warning "shipmates" not to use DeepSeek AI "in any capacity" due to "potential security and ethical concerns associated with the model's origin and usage."
