Sources: OpenAI is in talks with CNN and Fox Corp. to license their text, video, and image content; Time “is in discussions with OpenAI” about a content deal
OpenAI is in talks with CNN, Fox & Time to license their content. … X: Lynn Doan / @lynnmdoan : EXCLUSIVE lots of interesting detail including: The Washington Post has not been in talks with OpenAI in recent months. One media executive, who spoke on condition of anonymity, said their company is considering taking legal action against OpenAI, similar to the New York Times. Shirin Ghaffary / @shiringhaffary : NEW: OpenAI is in talks with CNN, Fox, and Time to license their content, according to sources familiar. Among the “dozens” of outlets it's talking to, as we first reported last week. w/ @GrahamStarr @BrodyFord_ https://www.bloomberg.com/... David Clinch / @davidclinchnews : #MediaRevenue It makes sense that OpenAI is progressing in talks with what I would describe as “volume” news orgs. Not that these orgs don't create “value” content as well, like NYT, but they provide the kind of real time volume that LLM's need to create outputs. See also Mediagazer
