Deepseek is a warning for US companies, says Trump

United States President Donald Trump said on Monday at a Republican party event in Miami, Florida, that American companies should face the rise of China Deepseek’s artificial intelligence (AI) as a ” Alert “to prioritize advancement in this technology sector.

The statement occurred during the meeting of republican members of Congress at Trump National Doral, where the president highlighted the need to reinforce national AI competitiveness, as well as the importance of the US investing in innovations that ensure the country’s safety and technological leadership .

“The launch of Deepseek, the artificial intelligence of a Chinese company, should be a warning to our industries that we have to focus on competing to win,” said Trump.
