With the world making significant strides in artificial intelligence, some countries are concerned about the key figures leading these efforts. In the latest news, the Wall Street Journal reported that Chinese authorities advised the country’s top artificial intelligence entrepreneurs and researchers to avoid traveling to the United States.
According to the report, the authorities are concerned that Chinese experts could divulge important and confidential information about the country’s progress. They also fear that they could be detained and used as a “bargaining chip” in US-China negotiations.

The report further revealed that those who decide to travel are instructed to report their plans before leaving. Moreover, they must also report on details like what they did and whom they met upon returning. DeepSeek founder Liang Wenfeng didn’t attend the AI summit in Paris in February, as per the report, while the founder of a major Chinese AI startup also canceled a planned U.S. trip last year, also due to instructions from Beijing.
In a similar effort, Meta has also fired at least 20 employees who leaked “confidential information outside the company”.
"We tell employees when they join the company, and we offer periodic reminders, that it is against our policies to leak internal information, no matter the intent. We recently conducted an investigation that resulted in roughly 20 employees being terminated for sharing confidential information outside the company, and we expect there will be more. We take this seriously, and will continue to take action when we identify leaks.”
Moves like these underscore the importance of privacy and confidentiality, especially in terms of progress in the world of artificial intelligence. Chinese President Xi Jinping has also been instructing top Communist Party officials to improve China's overall security, particularly in cybersecurity and artificial intelligence.
"We should give top priority to defending the country's political security”.
