The Chinese artificial intelligence company Deepseek says he has been a victim of a large-scale cyber attack. The company says it therefore has to temporarily restrict registration to its service.

The company’s site had fallen several times earlier during the day, when its app became the most popular product in the Apple app store in the United States.

The company did not tell what the attack could come from.

Deepseek released a new artificial intelligence model over the weekend, which has attracted a lot of attention. According to Deepseek, its artificial intelligence model needs less computing power and is cheaper than competitors’ models.

The shares of US artificial intelligence and technology companies, in particular, have slipped rapidly on Monday.

According to the above study, the model censors sensitive information to China.
