Summary
Nvidia has released an open letter backed by more than 230 companies urging the Trump administration not to impose what signatories call premature curbs on open-weight AI models.
The push comes as Silicon Valley debates whether openly shared model weights accelerate innovation or create security and misuse risks that warrant tighter federal limits.
The letter marks one of the broadest industry efforts yet to shape U.S. AI policy, putting Nvidia at the center of a fight over how far Washington should regulate open model development.
