OpenAI to use AP news stories for AI training

OpenAI and The Associated Press (AP) have formed a partnership where OpenAI will train its AI models on AP's news content, and in return, AP will gain access to OpenAI's technology and product expertise. While AP has long been exploring AI applications in its operations, how exactly it will leverage OpenAI's technology is yet to be clarified.

OpenAI and AP Partnership: OpenAI will be able to train its AI models on AP's news stories dating back to 1985.

In return, AP will gain access to OpenAI's technology and product expertise, but the specifics of this arrangement are not yet clear.

AP's History with AI: AP has a history of leveraging AI in its operations.

Since 2014, AP has used AI to generate reports about company earnings.

They also utilized AI to automate stories about Minor League Baseball and college sports.

OpenAI's Other Partnerships: OpenAI has several other partnerships in place.

Earlier this week, OpenAI announced a six-year deal with Shutterstock to license images, videos, music, and metadata for training its text-to-image model, DALL-E.

OpenAI is also providing AI tools to BuzzFeed to "enhance" and "personalize" its content, and working with Microsoft on AI-powered products.

AP's Future AI Projects: AP has already announced several AI-powered projects this year.

These include Spanish-language news alerts, documenting public safety incidents in a Minnesota newspaper, and an AI search tool to find photos and videos in its library.

However, AP has stated it "does not use it in its news stories," leaving some questions about how they will use OpenAI's technology.
