REDMOND, Washington: Microsoft has prohibited its employees from using Deepseek, a Chinese artificial intelligence app, citing concerns over data security and potential links to Chinese propaganda, the company's president Brad Smith said this week.
Testifying before a Senate hearing on AI competition with China, Smith stated that Microsoft has also refused to carry Deepseek's application in its app store.
"We are concerned about data going back to China and the app creating the kinds of content that people would say are associated with Chinese propaganda," Smith said.
