Google has released its response to the upcoming US AI Action Plan, focusing on three critical areas: AI investment, government AI adoption modernization, and international pro-innovation approaches.

Similar to OpenAI's recent statement, Google emphasizes the need for revised copyright regulations for AI training. The company specifically requests:

• Permission to use copyrighted, publicly available material for AI training
• Text-and-data mining exceptions for training AI models
• Balanced privacy laws recognizing exemptions for public information
• Federal privacy framework distinguishing between public, anonymous, and personally identifying data
• Support for AI-powered privacy-enhancing technologies

Google advocates for the government to:

• Lead by example in adopting AI standards
• Support workforce initiatives for AI skill development
• Help American companies retain top AI talent
• Maintain standards based on American values to prevent foreign protectionist requirements

The company specifically encourages the Department of Commerce and NIST to continue their engagement on standards and security work, emphasizing the importance of aligning with globally recognized standards.

Both Google and OpenAI's responses indicate a primary focus on circumventing existing copyright laws rather than working within current legal frameworks, particularly as the US response to AI regulation will significantly impact the global landscape.
