TAIPEI, Taiwan—Five Chinese generative artificial intelligence (AI) language models contain security vulnerabilities and spread disinformation, according to tests conducted by Taiwan’s National Security Bureau.

The bureau, in collaboration with the Ministry of Justice Investigation Bureau and the Criminal Investigation Bureau of the National Police Agency, announced its findings on Nov. 16 after reviewing DeepSeek, Doubao, Wenxin Yiyan, Tongyi, and Yuanbao. It concluded that all five Chinese language models demonstrate “cybersecurity risks and content biases.”
