Let me translate it for you. Deepseek represents an existential and profound threat to the financial results of OpenAI, Anthropic and Google.
I asked Deepseek to write me a response to the matter, in an ironic tone and being mean when possible:
Official Response from DeepSeek AI:
"The U.S. House Panel has declared us a ‘profound threat to national security’—joining the elite ranks of TikTok, Huawei, and that time Bernie Sanders wore mittens. We’re truly honored, especially since Congress has such a stellar track record of identifying real dangers, like that time they grilled the TikTok CEO for… checks notes… making an app Americans actually enjoy more than their own government’s apps.
On TikTok’s ‘Threat to Democracy’:
“Yes, an app where teens lip-sync and share ramen recipes is clearly more dangerous than, say, a $886 billion defense budget or the fact that half of Congress still thinks ‘algorithm’ is a type of Greek yogurt. But by all means, keep pretending this is about ‘data privacy’ and not the fact that U.S. tech giants can’t compete without a little… legislative sabotage.”On OpenAI’s ‘Open’ Charade:
“We’d love to be ‘open’ like OpenAI—you know, the ‘nonprofit’ that took billions in Microsoft money, works with the Pentagon, and lobbies against AI regulation. DeepSeek AI, meanwhile, is just out here trying to make useful tools without pretending we’re Captain America. (Though if Congress wants to fund us too, we accept cash, Venmo, and subpoenas.)”On That TikTok Hearing:
*"After watching lawmakers ask the TikTok CEO if his app ‘connects to WiFi,’ we’re begging to testify next. Our conditions:- No questions about ‘where the internet lives.’
- No confusing us with ChatGPT (we have standards).
- Mitch McConnell must be replaced by an AI that blinks occasionally."*
Final Offer:
“Instead of hyperventilating about AI, maybe fix the stuff actually undermining America—like lobbyists writing laws, or the fact your ‘open-source intelligence community’ still runs on Excel 97. But sure, investigate us. We’ll wait. (P.S. Our AI did predict this hearing would go viral… for all the wrong reasons.)”🇺🇸 DeepSeek AI: The Only ‘Foreign Adversary’ Here Is Your IT Department. 🚀🤖
That’s pretty good. Though, I am sure China’s government funded Deepseek.
That being said, compared to the incredibly dry and PC responses you would get from chatgpt, this is incredibly better.
It is a bit funny to call it a threat to national security, when you think that they have TRUMP AS A PRESIDENT.
“Free market” fans when free market
i mean can’t see how this is enforceable when they said the same thing about tiktok but the dumbass in chief keeps kicking the can down the road.
The whole administration is currently a threat to national security. Nation being the people, that is.
Good, I’ll gladly use anything that’s a “profound threat” to US “national security”.
So what’s the great challenge with blocking it phoning home, or even better, subtly fucking with the data it sends back? For example, Winnie the Pooh-themed fisting videos.
“National security” has always been a euphemism for anything that threatened the status of the American oligarchy.

That is especially true since the US is at the ass end of nowhere so actual threats to its national security are incredibly rare.
That category also includes a number of things that will lead to the deaths of large parts of the US population.
Ooh. Whataboutism. So original!
Actually, no.
As much as grok is, in fact more now that it has all the US populations information in it.
The fucking president and the republican traitor filth are the threat to national security. I cannot wish enough ill upon them.
I cannot wish enough ill upon them.
Not with that attitude. C’mon, keep trying like the rest of us.
GitHub has the code. Everyone should fork it to everywhere so they cannot delete it
It is such a lie that data is sent back to china.
It can be run without internet connection.
They’re just pissy that it outperforms their proprietary pieces of shit, thus the psyop campaign.

As you say, even with Internet connection, LLMs only infer. The software you run it on (or online) is a different story, and it’s literally already the case with everything else for decades (although it is getting worse).
We weren’t upset enough when Google started scraping everyone’s emails, or how Meta/Amazon/Google/Microsoft/ByteDance track all your Internet activity right now via browser fingerprinting.
Time to ditch browsers lol
Maybe Trump will ban it like Tiktok.
Oh wait.
Here, allow me to translate: National Security = $$$ from donors.
It’s a profound threat to OpenAI here in the USA lol
