It should be mentioned that some companies around the world have hinted that they don't allow the DeepSeep implementation, while others imposed restrictions, but this represents the first time that such a big company has mentioned publicly the ban on DeepSeep.
However, these concerns are fueled by the fear that DeepSeek might store personal company data, while some DeepSeek AI answers can be influenced directly by some Chinese propaganda ideas.
In the DeepSeek AI privacy policies, it is mentioned that the company is storing some users’ data directly on Chinese servers. But we don’t know for sure how this information is being used to train the artificial intelligence model, because, based on different sources, certain topics can be considered sensitive and eventually be censored by the platform.
It should be mentioned that when it was first released, the DeepSeek R1 model, which was considered at that time the most performant AI model compared with other industry models. Also, Microsoft was one of the first companies to offer the DeepSeek R1 model through its cloud service called Azure.
We must mention that things are a little bit different because DeepSeek is an open-source model, so compared with the chatbot, users can download the model and store their own personal data without needing to send all their information to the Chinese servers.
Even more so, during the recent Senate hearing, the Microsoft president stated that the company has put a lot of effort into changing DeepSeek’s rules and changing its potentially harmful principles. The company didn’t mention what principles it is planning to change.
The situation is indeed a little bit opposite compared with other industry models because DeepSeek and the AI model from Microsoft AI model called Copilot are direct competitors, but we must wait and see how things are going to evolve.
Stay tuned for more updates!
