  • Australia will move to ban the controversial Chinese AI company DeepSeek from all of its government systems and devices on national security grounds.

The Australian government has decided to ban the Chinese AI company DeepSeek from all its government systems due to national security concerns. This decision follows a review by the Australian Signals Directorate (ASD), which identified potential risks associated with DeepSeek's technology, particularly its ability to access and potentially compromise sensitive government data.

This move is part of a broader strategy to safeguard critical infrastructure and data against espionage and cyber threats.
