OpenAI has inked a deal with Condé Nast — the publisher of storied outlets such as The New Yorker, Vogue, and Wired — to surface stories from its properties in OpenAI’s AI-powered chatbot platform ChatGPT and its search prototype SearchGPT.
Terms of the partnership weren’t disclosed. But in a memo to staff, Condé Nast CEO Roger Lynch implied that the “multi-year” deal will involve payment from OpenAI in some form; a Condé Nast spokesperson tells TechCrunch that OpenAI will have permission to train on Condé Nast content.
OpenAI declined to comment.
Condé Nast is only the latest news organization to strike an agreement with OpenAI over how its works are spotlighted and used throughout OpenAI’s products. Among the AI startup’s other publisher partners are the Associated Press, Axel Springer, The Atlantic, Financial Times, News Corp and Time.
As TC recently wrote, these deals are being made without input from their reporters and editors, much to the chagrin of some of those employees.
