In recent years, with the rapid development of artificial intelligence technology, various chat robots have emerged one after another. Recently, a new chatbot called "DeepSeek" has become popular quickly and has received millions of downloads worldwide in a short period of time. This application, launched by a Chinese company, looks very similar to Chat GPT on the market, but its low-cost development model and background using top American AI models have caused the industry and users to talk about it.
DeepSeek: A new star in the field of AI
"DeepSeek" praises "Chinese version of ChatGPT". It has similar features to existing chatbots, but is better in some ways. Once released, the app quickly ranked first in the global app download rankings and became a phenomenal store application. However, security researchers point out that deep-searched "jailbreak" scores are lower and may be more likely to be induced to generate bad information, causing security concerns.
Privacy risks emerge, and many government agencies issued warnings
The rapid popularity of "DeepSeek" has aroused high vigilance from many government agencies. The Australian Minister of Science first expressed concerns about data and privacy management issues for application and quickly banned the government from using in-depth searches on devices. These include Taiwan, Italy, Texas, the United States and South Korea's intelligence agencies have expressed similar concerns. ABC also bans DeepSeek on work computers, further demonstrating its risk.
Cybersecurity Analysis: Security Vulnerabilities Are Worrying
Network security analysis shows that "DeepSeek" has serious security vulnerabilities. It may collect user equipment data widely and the risk of unencrypted during data transmission is also worrying about the security of data storage. What is more interesting is that "DeepSeek" is developed by a Chinese company. Under China's National Security Law, Chinese companies may be required to provide further user data to the government, which has raised deep international concerns about data security.
Experts: Pay attention to potential risks
Cybersecurity experts recommend that the public should pay attention when using AI applications such as "DeepSeek" and pay attention to uploading any sensitive or undesirable information. Users should read the terms of service carefully to understand the government's data processing methods. Especially for organizations such as enterprises and institutions that have confidentiality obligations, they should maintain the use of milk, comprehensively assess potential risks, and formulate strict safety management measures.
China's official response: denies allegations and condemns politicization
In response to international concerns and doubts, the Chinese government denied the allegations of data collection in "DeepSeek" and strongly condemned the practice of politicizing economic, trade and technical issues. China stressed that the Chinese government will not require companies to collect user data illegally, and said that the company's operations are fully in line with the law.
