The AI startup OpenAI, led by Sam Altman, has announced a long-term collaboration with Condé Nast to showcase content from its brands, like Vogue and the New Yorker. The Artificial Intelligence (AI) startup’s products include ChatGPT and SearchGPT prototypes.
The specific financial details of the agreement weren’t disclosed. Over the last few months, OpenAI has inked similar agreements with Time magazine, Financial Times, Axel Springer (the owner of Business Insider), France’s Le Monde, and Spain’s Prisa Media.
These content partnerships are crucial for training artificial intelligence models. Nevertheless, some media organizations, such as the New York Times and the Intercept, have taken legal action against the Microsoft-supported company for copyright issues related to their content.
Brad Lightcap, OpenAI’s chief operating officer, stated that the company collaborates with Condé Nast and other news publishers to ensure that as AI becomes more involved in news discovery and delivery, it upholds accuracy and integrity and respects quality reporting.
Condé Nast CEO Roger Lynch mentioned in a memo to employees that news and digital media have faced significant difficulties over the past decade due to many technology firms diminishing publishers’ ability to monetize content. Roger Lynch also noted that their collaboration with OpenAI is a step towards compensating for some of that lost revenue.
OpenAI introduced its AI-powered search engine, SearchGPT, in July. By providing real-time access to online information, SearchGPT marks OpenAI’s entry into a domain that Google has long dominated.
On Tuesday, the company announced that it is partnering with its news partners to gather feedback and insights on SearchGPT’s design and performance.
