Journalism and technology

In an official statement, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman celebrated the agreement as “a proud moment for journalism and technology” While the exact terms of the deal were not disclosed, a Wall Street Journal report estimates that News Corp will receive about $250 million over five years in cash and credit.

“We deeply value News Corp’s history as a leader in delivering breaking news around the world and are excited to improve our users’ access to its high-quality reporting. Together, we are laying the foundation for a future where AI deeply respects, improves and defends the standards of journalism,” the executive said.

The effectiveness of the responses generated by ChatGPT directly depends on the quality of the data used in its training. Historically, many of these the data was collected without consent, extracting publicly available content. However, recently, OpenAI has moved towards formal partnerships with the information industry to ensure that its models are trained on authoritative, up-to-date and reliable data.

In recent months OpenAI has signed agreements with various platforms and media, including Reddit, Financial Times and Associated Press. News Corp, in turn, also concluded a million-dollar deal Google last month to allow its content to be used in AI training.

The legal issue surrounding the use of journalistic content by AI companies has generated a lot of controversy lately. Many publications have taken steps to this effect protect your copyright and control the use of your material. The New York Times and the BBC, for example, have chosen to block unauthorized access by AI companies to their content, highlighting the need for clear rules and fair agreements.
