Security researchers say the website of the Chinese artificial intelligence company DeepSeek has computer code that could send some user login information to a Chinese state-owned telecommunications company that's been barred from operating in the United States.

Security researchers tested 50 well-known jailbreaks against DeepSeek’s popular new AI chatbot. It didn’t stop a single one.

The New South Wales government has blocked access to Chinese AI chatbot DeepSeek over privacy and security concerns, with other Australian states also assessing potential risks. The move follows warnings from cybersecurity experts about the chatbot’s data storage in China and its compliance with government directives.
