China is Reportedly Using DeepSeek for Surveillance on the US

The U.S. is considering banning DeepSeek AI on government equipment, potentially making it the second nation to do so after Australia. U.S. Reps. Darin LaHood and Josh Gottheimer have put forward a bipartisan measure advocating for the ban. In a letter addressed to 47 state governors and Washington, D.C.’s mayor, the lawmakers expressed concerns that DeepSeek could endanger cybersecurity, the privacy of American citizens, and confidential government data. Although China has denied these claims, experts suggest that the concerns raised by U.S. officials are valid. Reports indicate that the Chinese government has used AI tools for extensive surveillance, including biometric…

Storage Vendors Incorporate Data Management Capabilities to Lure AI Clients

Data storage sellers are now integrating data management tools into their offerings to attract businesses investing in AI infrastructure. These enhancements range from software improvements within storage systems to additional features in core storage solutions. As AI apps and model training evolve, enterprises are rethinking their approach to data storage. One of the biggest challenges storage vendors must address involves optimizing AI inferencing and training—critical processes that refine AI models. Organizations, particularly those with limited data expertise, may find value in bundled solutions, though seller lock-in remains a concern. Different vendors define data management capabilities in their own way. For…

Study Suggests AI Could Predict Future Pandemics

AI has greatly enhanced the ability to predict the emergence and spread of diseases. A recent study highlights that continued advancements in this field rely on transparent data and lower training costs. AI has already been applied in various areas of healthcare, such as diagnosing patients, assisting doctors in decision-making, and predicting individual disease risks. However, its role in epidemiology remains limited, largely due to difficulties accessing large, standardized datasets required for effectively training AI models. Newer AI systems, however, have shown the ability to perform well even with smaller datasets, making them valuable for epidemiological research. When an outbreak…
