Artificial intelligence is bringing advancements but, not all AI systems are welcomed everywhere. Deep Seek AI, a powerful AI tool, has reportedly to banned in the United States of America. But Why? In this blog, we’ll break down the 1o reasons behind this decision.
Data privacy and privacy concerns.
Why privacy matters in AI?
DeepSeek AI user’s data handling has raised serious concerns. According to Forbes report
the platform allegedly collected, and processed user’s data without proper user’s consent. This violates US laws like GDPR and CCPA. This lack of transparency put a red-flag against Deep seek in US.
National security risk
The US government fears that having a foreign entity in their country could have access to their sensitive data. A report by The dark reading claims that having a LLM model in the country is full of risks to the national security. They claim that Deepseek has failed security tests multiple times.
The Black box problem.
One of the biggest criticism DeepSeek AI has faced is lack of transparency. Regulators believe that its algorithm operates just like “Black box”. Making it impossible to understand what and how it makes decisions. This opacity raises the concerns about fairness and accountability.
Ethical Concerns
DeepSeek AI has been linked to unethical practices, such as creating Deep fakes and spreading misinformation moreover, these activities have sparked global debates about the moral implications of AI technology.
Non-Compliance with US Regulations
DeepSeek AI reportedly failed to meet US regularity standards. From licensing issues to with AI specified laws. Ultimately, the platform’s inability to follow the rules led to its ban.
Competition with Local AI Companies;
This is considered to be the most important reason behind DeepSeek ban in US. Because Deep seek affected the local AI tools most including the OpenAI. US is the home to AI giants like OpenAI and Google DeepMind. Deep Seek gave huge economic clashes to other US based AI based companies. They don’t want to give space to any extra player in their tech ground.
Intellectual property violation:
DeepSeek AI has been accused of using data and algorithms without permission. Such violations lead to legal disputes and damage AI trust system.
Bias and discrimination issues:
DeepSeek is also criticized for producing biased outputs, like when you ask deep seek to write a blog about comparison between deep seek and ChatGPT, it will try to prove DeepSeek a better option over ChatGPT. As a result this biasness creates variations, the user is unable to come to a decision which model should he/she should be used.
Economic Implications
The widespread use of DeepSeek could easily disrupt the US job market, especially in sectors like customer services and manufacturing. On the other hand, deep seek can be problematic in AI-driven jobs. You may think how check out this blog out The Future of AI, predictions for upcoming 5 years (2025-30).
Geopolitical Tensions
The Geopolitical tensions between the USA and the owner country of Deep seek also played a vital role. In addition, this is considered to be the main reason by most analysts to believe that Deep seek is owned by Chinese company due to the geopolitical reasons it was banned, however numerous analysts give saturated opinions.
Conclusion
To sum up these all, the ban on deep seek in US highlights the challenges of regulating AI. Moreover, if all these allegations are based on proofs, then it was a far better decision to ban Deep seek. These sanctions on deep seek can be removed if both countries come on same forum, but neither of the both countries are ready.
