Warning! The Dangers of Using the new DeepSeek as an AI Tool!
DeepSeek AI has gained significant attention recently for its impressive capabilities and cost-efficiency. However, despite its advancements, there are several dangers associated with using DeepSeek that businesses should be aware of.
Privacy Concerns
One of the primary concerns with DeepSeek is its handling of user data. DeepSeek collects extensive personal information, including text or audio input, chat history, and technical details about the user’s device. This data is stored on servers located in China, raising significant privacy and security concerns. The potential for misuse of this data by third parties or government entities is a serious risk that cannot be overlooked.
Security Risks
DeepSeek has been subject to large-scale cyberattacks, including distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks, which have disrupted its services. These attacks highlight the vulnerabilities in DeepSeek’s infrastructure and the potential risks to users’ data and privacy.
National Security Issues
DeepSeek’s association with foreign entities has sparked debates over national security. The fear is that DeepSeek’s AI models could be used by the foreign government for surveillance or other malicious activities. This has led to cautionary advisories and bans from various governments, including the U.S. and Australia. Italy has banned DeepSeek completely.
Bias and Ethical Concerns
DeepSeek has been criticised for significant biases in its responses, particularly on politically sensitive issues. This raises ethical concerns about the reliability and fairness of the information provided by the AI.
In conclusion, the privacy, security, and ethical concerns associated with DeepSeek cannot be ignored. We advise against installing and using DeepSeek in any way. For a secure and private AI solution, we recommend using Microsoft Copilot only.
