China has reportedly instructed its top AI researchers and executives to avoid traveling to the U.S. due to security concerns. According to The Wall Street Journal, Beijing fears that these professionals could unintentionally share sensitive information or be targeted in geopolitical disputes. The directive comes amid heightened U.S.-China tensions over AI advancements, with China aiming to protect its technological progress from foreign influence. Chinese AI startup DeepSeek has launched competitive AI models, intensifying the tech rivalry. Authorities now require AI leaders to report travel plans and debrief after returning. The move highlights China’s growing focus on national security in the AI sector.
