Hollywood to Trump: Don’t let Openai and Google Train in our protected work a copyright

Adel use is a basic concept in the law of copyright that gives people an exception to the use of protected content even if it is not the copyright holder, in limited and specific cases. In the past, artificial intelligence companies, which are hungry of the content created by man to train and improve their artificial intelligence models, needed to push publishers and content content to reach these materials. Exclusion of fair use would make it easier for technology companies to access content without costly legal obstacles.

Google and Openai have suggested similar changes to the current copyright law in its administration’s AI’s proposals. Google books Such exceptions allow them to “avoid largely unpredictable, unpredictable, and long negotiations with data holders while developing the model.” Openai books This fair protection of artificial intelligence is necessary to protect US national security.

Part of the modern government batch on artificial intelligence is fears of losing a global position and technological edge on developing artificial intelligence into opponents like China. Chinese AI, like Chatgpt competitor DibsicIt continues to be treated, but the concerns are many protection and Lack of handrails.

In other words, technology companies such as Google and Openai, each of which are estimated in hundreds of billions and trillions of dollars, do not want to go to the applicable legal process and pay the content rights they need to make AIS competitive with those developed by China. They want the Trump administration to write protection for them as part of the artificial intelligence plan.

Hollywood signatories strongly oppose the possibility of rewriting the copyright law. “America did not become a global cultural power by chance,” says the message. “Our success stems directly from our basic respect for IP and copyright, which rewards creative risks by talented Americans and work hard from every state and lands.”

It was the copyright office in the United States Guidance development How to deal with copyright claims for the content created by artificial intelligence. But people were worried for years – and Even prosecution – How to train artificial intelligence models in a way that violates the rights of copyrights.

Openai and Google did not participate exactly what content is their Chatgpt and Gemini training databases.

The copyright equation becomes more complicated as we know at least one company Received a copyright claim For a picture, each part is generated by artificial intelligence. It leaves room for uncertainty on every aspect of chaos that are copyright and Amnesty International.

Trump and AI administration

Even this point, there was no significant progress in government supervision or legislation that regulates how technology giants such as Openai and Google AI. Former President Biden obtained many major technology companies Voluntary To develop artificial intelligence responsibly and try to enact some handrails on developing artificial intelligence through the executive command. But within hours of the opening, Trump Rolled Biden’s executive with one of him.

In his executive affairs on artificial intelligence, Trump said he wanted to “maintain and enhance the dominance of Air Air Airant.” The artificial intelligence plan is how it plans to enact a copy of the technology policy. Vice Vice President Vans presented the plan, broader the administration’s view of technology, at an international summit in artificial intelligence in January.

“When he leads such conferences to discuss advanced technology, often, I think our response is to be a very self -awareness, and aim to take a very risk. But I have never faced a boom in technology that clearly calls us to do exactly the opposite.”

In addition to an invitation to obtain reactions, January Executive order From President Trump, he called for the American artificial intelligence “free of ideological bias or engineering social business schedules.”

Meanwhile, technology leaders such as OPNAI from Sundar Pichai and Sam Altman from OpenAi were reaching the new management. Homosexuality Donate One million dollars of his private funds for the opening fund Trump and Google As a company The same thing donated. Altman and Pichai got seats in the front row of the right -wing party, along with Meta Mark Zuckerberg, X’s Elon Musk and Amazon’s Jeff Bezos. Executive managers are likely to help them help them to help them in paving the way for the future of their technology company – even if, in this case, it will break contracts of the established copyright law.

Many groups of people – and not only creators – are concerned that unorganized development and the use of artificial intelligence may be disastrous.

What comes after that for copyright and AI?

The US Publishing Rights Office is expected to issue another report on artificial intelligence, especially on “the legal effects of training artificial intelligence models on copyright -protected business, licensing considerations, and allocating any possible responsibility.”

Meanwhile, a number of active lawsuits can determine important precedents for the judicial branch.

Legislation like There is no fake work It also runs its way through Congress, but it is not clear the type of future artificial intelligence legislation.
