OpenAI has officially voiced its opposition to California's SB 1047, arguing that the bill would hinder innovation and drive talent away from the state. In a letter to Senator Scott Wiener and Governor Gavin Newsom, OpenAI's Chief Strategy Officer Jason Kwon emphasized that California's leadership in AI is crucial for economic growth. The company believes that federal policies, rather than state regulations, are necessary to maintain the competitive edge in AI development.
The opposition from OpenAI aligns with a broader backlash against SB 1047, which includes support from major tech players like Google and Meta, as well as investment firm Andreessen Horowitz. Senator Wiener countered OpenAI's claims, stating that the bill is not limited to California-based companies and that the arguments presented are unfounded. As the bill heads for a final vote, it remains to be seen how Governor Newsom will respond, especially given the potential backlash from the tech industry.
