The White House's National Security Council is analyzing DeepSeek's implications for the American AI industry, particularly its risks to US firms like OpenAI and Google. Concurrently, Italy's data protection authority is scrutinizing DeepSeek's data collection practices, demanding specifics about the handling of personal data and compliance with privacy laws, highlighting growing international tensions regarding data sovereignty and AI innovations.
