South Korea imposes new restrictions on DeepSeek use

South Korea on Thursday imposed new restrictions on the use of Chinese AI chatbot DeepSeek among officials amid data collection concerns.

In the latest, the country's Environment Ministry blocked access to the DeepSeek due to "multiple technical reasons," Seoul-based Yonhap News reported.

The ministry blocked access to DeepSeek from its internet-connected PCs, though it did not take such a measure for other generative AIs, such as OpenAI and ChatGPT.
