Google has responded to the proposed US AI Action Plan with specific recommendations focusing on three key areas: AI investment, government AI adoption, and international pro-innovation approaches.

The tech giant emphasizes the need to address copyright restrictions on AI training data, specifically requesting:

  • Permission to use copyrighted, publicly available material for AI training
  • Text-and-data mining exceptions without impacting rights holders
  • Streamlined negotiations for data access

Regarding privacy and data protection, Google advocates for:

  • Balanced privacy laws recognizing exemptions for public information
  • Federal framework distinguishing between public, anonymous, and personal data
  • AI-powered privacy-enhancing technologies to protect user data

Google also emphasizes government leadership through:

  • Adoption of AI-oriented standards
  • Support for workforce AI skill development
  • Retention of top AI talent in American companies

The company urges the Department of Commerce and NIST to maintain engagement on standards and security work, emphasizing the importance of aligning with globally recognized standards to prevent protectionist requirements that could hinder innovation.

This response parallels OpenAI's earlier statement, with both companies seeking ways to navigate existing copyright laws while advancing AI development. The focus remains on establishing frameworks that balance innovation with regulatory compliance.
