OpenAI and Anthropic reportedly lobby Washington to curb open-source AI models
firstadopter · x · 2026-07-25
The New York Times reports that OpenAI and Anthropic have lobbied Washington regulators to curb open-source AI models, while U.S. officials are weighing options that may treat Chinese open-source models individually as a national-security issue rather than imposing a blanket ban.
The story frames the debate as part of the broader open-vs-closed AI fight, with economic and national-security implications still being argued inside the government.
