OpenAI and Google are urging the US government to take decisive action to secure the nation's leadership in Artificial Intelligence. In letters to the Office of Science and Technology Policy, both companies emphasized the importance of maintaining America's lead in AI, especially as competitors like China rapidly advance. OpenAI highlighted the potential of AI to drive productivity and likened its advancements to historical leaps in innovation, advocating for open access while safeguarding against autocratic control.
They warned that America's technological lead in AI is "not wide and is narrowing". The recent submissions from March 2025 highlight urgent concerns about national security risks, economic competitiveness, and the need for strategic regulatory frameworks to maintain US leadership in AI development amid growing global competition. The emergence of China's Deepseek R1 model has triggered significant concern among major US AI developers, who view it as compelling evidence that the technological gap is quickly closing.
