OpenAI crackdown on China, ban imposed on many accounts, were doing this work secretly
OpenAI has banned many accounts related to China. It has been claimed that social media monitoring of many countries including America was being done from many OpenAI accounts in China.
After the uproar in America after the Chinese chatbot AI DeepSeek, the US firms' tightness with China is not subsiding. New measures have been taken by OpenAI. A number of China-related accounts have been blocked by the company. In its report on threats, the company discovered the accounts were using social media monitoring.
According to the report, these accounts were generating descriptions for social media listening tools. It has been claimed that this tool was being used to prepare real-time reports of protests taking place in Western countries and send them to Chinese security agencies.
OpenAI said, "These operators used our models to check whether their insights reached Chinese embassies and intelligence agencies. This surveillance was happening in many countries including the US, Germany, and the UK."
