OpenAI and Google are pushing the US government to allow their AI models to train on copyrighted material. Both companies outlined their stances in proposals published this week, with OpenAI arguing that applying fair use protections to AI “is a matter of national security.”

Like OpenAI, Google has been accused of piping copyrighted data into its models, but content owners are wising up. Google is fighting several lawsuits, and the New York Times' lawsuit against OpenAI could set the precedent that AI developers are liable for using that training data without permission.

OpenAI is calling on the Trump administration to give AI companies an exemption to train their models on copyrighted material. In a blog post spotted by The Verge, the company this week published its response to President Trump's AI Action Plan.

Google's AI model Gemini is getting even more personal. The company announced this week that enabling a new personalization tool will allow the AI model to reference your search history to enhance and deepen its responses.

Google has unveiled Gemini with Personalization, a new AI feature that connects to users' Search history to deliver more tailored responses.

Google Gemini adds experimental personalization feature that uses Search history, blurring the line between organic Search and AI assistants
