The Silicon Valley-based company said Wednesday it has seen various attempts by China-based entities to exfiltrate large volumes of data from its AI tools,

OpenAI says it has found evidence that Chinese artificial intelligence start-up DeepSeek used the US company’s proprietary models to train its own open-source competitor, as concerns grow over a potential breach of intellectual property.
