China Opposes US Ban On Government Agencies Using DeepSeek

Beijing has opposed a US government ban on its agencies using AI tools from Chinese startup DeepSeek, calling the move an overstretch of national security. China says the ban targets Chinese innovation under the guise of security concerns.

The US government announced restrictions preventing federal agencies from deploying AI models and tools developed by DeepSeek, citing data security and national security risks. US officials argued that use of Chinese AI tools in government systems could expose sensitive data and critical infrastructure to foreign access.

In response, China’s Foreign Ministry said the US action is discriminatory and politicizes technology and trade. Beijing insisted that DeepSeek operates in compliance with market principles and international rules, and that Washington is overstretching the concept of national security to suppress Chinese tech companies.

DeepSeek, a fast-growing Chinese AI startup known for its cost-efficient large language models, has gained global attention in recent months. Its models have been adopted by developers and businesses worldwide, raising competition concerns in Washington as US-China tech rivalry deepens.

Analysts say the ban reflects growing US scrutiny of Chinese AI firms amid fears over data sovereignty and influence. China has urged the US to provide a fair, open and non-discriminatory environment for Chinese enterprises and to stop what it calls unwarranted suppression.

The dispute adds to a series of tech restrictions between the two superpowers, with implications for global AI governance and adoption. Howedey.com will continue to monitor reactions from Beijing, Washington and the tech industry.
