US: BSA Comments on the Networking and Information Technology Research and Development National Coordination Office’s RFI on an AI Action Plan
The comments recommend that the Administration’s AI Action Plan:
- Promote government efficiency by streamlining and strengthening federal agencies’ trustworthy and secure adoption of AI;
- Increase investment in research and development (R&D) and AI infrastructure, including by expanding the National AI Research Resource (NAIRR), creating a dedicated technical initiative to advance AI science, and supporting open source;
- Pursue strategic engagement in international AI initiatives, including promoting digital trade policies that preserve the competitiveness of American businesses, promoting global interoperability on policy approaches, and facilitating international standards and scientific approaches that align with US insights and priorities;
- Strengthen educational and workforce development to create and protect American jobs; and
- Ensure continued American leadership on AI innovation by leveraging US copyright law’s flexibility to enable AI training through the “fair use” exception, ensuring copyrightability of AI outputs where there is sufficient human creativity, and protecting software incorporating AI outputs.
