Finance Ministry Prohibits Use of AI Tools by Employees

India's Finance Ministry has issued an advisory instructing employees to refrain from using AI tools such as ChatGPT and DeepSeek on official devices, citing concerns over data confidentiality and security. The directive emphasizes that these applications pose risks to sensitive government information. This move aligns with similar actions taken by countries like Australia and Italy, which have restricted the use of certain AI tools due to data security concerns.
