Yesterday, Public Knowledge filed an amicus brief in the consolidated lawsuit against @OpenAI, in support of the defendant’s motion for summary judgment on fair use grounds.
“The risks that unchecked AI adoption poses to creators are real and require a thoughtful regulatory response. Gutting fair use is not that.” Read our statement from Senior Policy Counsel @M_F_Rose:

Recently, several @publicknowledge staff had the privilege of joining the Callawassie Island Book Club for a conversation on tech policy and AI safety. Intern Audrey Black shares key takeaways in her latest blog post:

In a competitive market, app stores that let kids download nudify apps would risk losing families' trust and business, forcing companies to compete on child safety. But with 2 companies controlling the software on over 99% of American smartphones, there's nowhere else to go.
NEW: Users as young as 13 can access dozens of nudify apps on both Apple and Google phones, even when parental controls are enabled, a new TTP report finds. techtransparencyproject.org/…
Legislation to bring competition to the mobile app marketplace is the path forward, and bills like #OAMA and #ASFA do just that. Read our joint letter to Congress:

Some AI regulation frameworks treat innovation as self-justifying. Others take risks and harms seriously, but offer no vision of what to build instead.
Ours does both. Introducing the Public Knowledge AI Regulation Framework:

Today, the @FCC voted to provide more spectrum capacity for satellite broadband services. This additional spectrum clears the way for improving satellite broadband capacity for millions of rural Americans, and encourages innovation and competition in satellite services.
