OpenAI and the global magazine giant Condé Nast have revealed a partnership that will enable ChatGPT and its search engine, SearchGPT, to feature content from well-known publications such as Vogue, The New Yorker, and GQ.
This multi-year agreement is the latest in a series of deals OpenAI has made with major media companies.
Media organizations produce content that is highly valued by tech companies that use it to train their AI (Artificial Intelligence) models.
However, some media outlets, including the New York Times and the Chicago Tribune, have resisted these efforts and have pursued legal action to protect their content.
OpenAI and Condé Nast have not disclosed the financial terms of their deal.
Brad Lightcap, OpenAI's chief operating officer, stated, "We’re committed to working with Condé Nast and other news publishers to ensure that as AI plays a larger role in news discovery and delivery, it maintains accuracy, integrity, and respect for quality reporting."
News media companies have faced challenges to their business models due to the rise of social media and other digital platforms.
Roger Lynch, Condé Nast's chief executive officer, said, "Our partnership with OpenAI begins to make up for some of that revenue, allowing us to continue to protect and invest in our journalism and creative endeavors."
OpenAI introduced its AI-powered search engine prototype, SearchGPT, last month.
At the time, the company mentioned that it was gathering feedback and insights from its partners in the news industry to refine the new platform.
Other media organizations that have partnered with the AI firm include Time Magazine, the Financial Times, and the Associated Press.
Many analysts view AI chatbot technology as a crucial component of the future of internet search engines.
Search engine leader Google has also been rapidly integrating AI-powered tools into its products.
