According to BlockBeats, Google and OpenAI have urged the U.S. government, led by President Donald Trump, to ease restrictions on AI training, particularly concerning the use of copyrighted materials. The tech giants submitted policy proposals on Thursday, advocating for a more flexible approach to artificial intelligence regulations as the U.S. government plans to develop its 'AI Action Plan' by mid-2025.
The proposals from Google and OpenAI respond to President Trump's recent focus on AI regulation, following his revocation of the previous administration's AI executive order in January 2025. Both companies argue that relaxing intellectual property barriers is crucial for fostering innovation and maintaining the United States' leadership in AI development.
Google emphasized that 'fair use and text and data mining exceptions' are vital for ongoing AI research, warning that stringent copyright policies could hinder advancements in areas such as healthcare, scientific discovery, and economic development.
