OpenAI Urges EU Regulators to Curb Big Tech’s Grip on AI Ecosystem

OpenAI has told European Union regulators that competition in the AI industry is being stifled by entrenched tech giants such as Google. In a statement shared Thursday, the ChatGPT maker maintains that these arguments are not novel, but instead reflect its long-standing public position on fair competition in the AI ecosystem, according to a Reuters report.

For context, during a September 24 meeting with Teresa Ribera, EU antitrust chief, OpenAI highlighted the challenges that “smaller” players like itself face when competing against vertically integrated platforms that already control massive user bases and infrastructure.

According to reports first published by Bloomberg News, the world’s most valuable startup then urged the Commission to ensure that major platforms cannot “lock in” users or leverage their dominance in search and advertising to further tighten their grip on the fast-growing AI market.

While the European Union and Google did not immediately respond to Reuters’ request for comments, OpenAI said the commission was already investigating how tech giants are extending their market positions into AI, in part by evaluating specific intercompany agreements.
