Evening Edition: More Countries Join Ban On DeepSeek App
from The Fox News Rundown · host FOX News Podcasts
South Korea has become the latest country to decide to ban the DeepSeek app from app stores over privacy issues. Regulators in Italy did the same not long ago and both countries say they have found evidence that DeepSeek was sharing users personal information. The Chinese app shocked the tech world announcing the new AI was exponentially cheaper to develop than U.S. developed AI, setting off a nearly trillion dollar sell off of technology stocks in the markets. FOX’s Eben Brown speaks with Eric Eggers, with the Government Accountability Institute, who says DeepSeek is based in falsehoods from their promise to keep personal information secure to the cost of development.
