Google posted its comment to the White House Office of Science & Technology Policy’s request.
Like OpenAI, Google stressed the importance of fair use to AI development, although its section was shorter than in OpenAI’s comment.
Copyright. Balanced copyright rules, such as fair use and text-and-data mining
exceptions, have been critical to enabling AI systems to learn from prior knowledge and publicly available data, unlocking scientific and social advances. These exceptions allow for the use of copyrighted, publicly available material for AI training without significantly impacting rightsholders and avoid often highly unpredictable, imbalanced, and lengthy negotiations with data holders during model development or scientific experimentation. Balanced copyright laws that ensure access to publicly available scientific papers, for example, are essential for accelerating AI in science, particularly for applications that sift through scientific literature for insights or new hypotheses.
