U.S. House lawmakers are seeking information from DoorDash as part of a joint congressional investigation into the company’s use of artificial intelligence. According to reports, the request comes from chairs of two House panels who want DoorDash to explain how it uses a Chinese-made AI model and what safeguards are in place.
Quartz reports that the specific system at issue is “Kimi K2.6,” produced by Beijing-based Moonshot AI. The inquiry focuses on DoorDash’s deployment of the model, including how it is used and the basis for its selection.
CNBC similarly reports that lawmakers ask DoorDash to provide details about its use of Chinese AI models. Both outlets frame the effort as part of a broader information-gathering process by House committees, rather than a statement of wrongdoing by the company.
The exact scope of the document requests and the timing for DoorDash’s response are not detailed in the cited reports.
