OpenAI and Axel Springer, a prominent news publisher, recently established a groundbreaking agreement that allows ChatGPT to summarize reports from sources including Politico and Business Insider. This partnership grants Axel Springer the opportunity to use its media outlets as data for providing OpenAI's more advanced AI models, like GPT-4, with training. This deal arrives as many creators, including writers, artists, publishers, and technologists, are evaluating the potential of legal action against the producers of renowned AI technology due to potential copyright violations.
OpenAI and global news publisher Axel Springer have announced a groundbreaking deal on Wednesday that will allow ChatGPT to generate summaries of news items from outlets such as Politico and Business Insider. This announcement comes as content creators and industry professionals are increasingly considering or pursuing legal action against companies behind AI tools, such as chatbots and image-generation models, for allegedly using copyrighted material and creations as training data. For example, renowned authors John Grisham and George R.R. Martin filed a lawsuit against OpenAI in September. In the OpenAI-Axel Springer deal, ChatGPT will include articles from popular media outlets such as Politico, Business Insider, Bild and Welt, as well as articles that are usually restricted to subscribers of these outlets. The chatbot will also include attribution and links to the full stories for transparency. This partnership follows a similar agreement between OpenAI and the Associated Press that was reached in July. Under this deal, Axel Springer will supply content from its media outlets to be used as training data for OpenAI's language models, such as GPT-4. A study conducted by the News Media Alliance in October noted that data sets employed for commonly used AI models rely substantially more on publisher content as opposed to generic web content, with the factor ranging from above five to almost 100.
