They're not mutually exclusive. Ideally OpenAI wants regulation that will put them ahead of others, which means: * set the bar high enough that competition needs to put more effort (or maybe is entirely prevented from entering the market) * set the bar low enough that OpenAI's business model is not affected (e.g. does not require them to spend significant amount of time and resources on complying with the regulation) So in US they can lobby for more rules while in EU for fewer restrictions.
