A group of creative minds in Hollywood have penned an open letter addressing the Office of Science and Technology Policy (OSTP) at the White House, urging a review of the U.S. AI Action Plan. OpenAI and Google have proposed reducing the intensity of using copyrighted content for AI training data.
Previously, the OSTP had solicited feedback from major tech companies, with multiple points raised by OpenAI and Google regarding fair access to content for ethical AI training, including copyrighted material.
The Hollywood creators emphasize the significant role of the arts and entertainment industry in the U.S., citing economic value, job creation, soft power, promoting American ideals, and striving for leadership in AI. They argue against compromising abilities by granting access to copyrighted content from films, TV, and other media for AI training.
This joint letter has garnered support from prominent Hollywood figures, including Ben Stiller, Cate Blanchett, Paul McCartney, and Ron Howard.
