Alibaba Group (BABA), DeepSeek, and other private technology enterprises are seeing their leading artificial intelligence experts face new overseas travel limits implemented by China, Bloomberg reported Tuesday, citing people familiar with the matter.
Government authorities now require personnel involved in critical AI development to secure official clearance prior to leaving the country, the news outlet added.
The implementation introduces potential recruitment and retention risks for domestic AI companies already navigating heightened state involvement following Beijing's push for Meta Platforms (META) to unwind its $2 billion purchase of Manus, the report added.
Alibaba, DeepSeek, Meta Platforms, and China's Ministry of Industry and Information Technology did not immediately respond to MT Newswires' request for comment.
