50 years ago this week, the Copyright Act of 1976 codified fair use. For nearly 185 years, fair use has let innovators build from one idea to the next — from the VCR to the search engine. Today, it powers AI-driven progress, accelerating medical breakthroughs and scientific discovery.

Earlier this year, CCIA, @NetChoice, and @Progressforai filed a joint brief in In re Mosaic LLM Litigation, urging the court to recognize AI training on copyrighted works as fair use. The brief argued that #AI training is transformative, promotes innovation, and advances the Constitution’s goal of promoting progress in science and the useful arts. https://t.co/p7euxlU8xu

#FairUse has been a part of #USCopyrightLaw for nearly two centuries.

Microsoft’s Jordan Gimbel explains its importance.

In April 2026, CCIA joined @NetChoice and @Progressforai in urging the Northern District of California to affirm that training generative #AI models on copyrighted works is lawful #Fair Use. Courts should protect AI training that transforms copyrighted works into new tools for creativity, research, and innovation. Read more: https://t.co/hk0H6bcLk0

Speed, scale, and data access increasingly matter in the global AI race.

As China accelerates AI deployment, restrictions on training could weaken America's edge.

Good AI policy is targeted and smart, addressing harms while preserving American competitiveness.

[AI Progress @Progressforai]

AI is already driving economic growth — improving health care, accelerating breakthroughs, boosting productivity, and helping small businesses compete. Realizing AI’s full potential depends on access to diverse datasets. Fair use provides a flexible framework that supports innovation while respecting IP rights.
