OpenAI and Time have entered into a multi-year content agreement to allow the former to train its artificial intelligence (AI) models on more than a century of the latter’s work.

Meanwhile, OpenAI and its partner Microsoft face yet another lawsuit over the alleged unauthorized use of articles to conduct prior AI training, this time from the nonprofit Center for Investigative Reporting.

Another lawsuit

Center for Investigative Reporting, a nonprofit organization that recently merged with news site Mother Jones and also produces the Reveal news site, has filed a lawsuit against OpenAI on or about June 27.

According to a report from ABC News, the lawsuit was filed in New York. In it, the plaintiff alleges that OpenAI used copyrighted material owned by Center for Investigative Reporting to train its AI models without permission and without offering compensation.

Center for Investigative Reporting CEO Monica Bauerlein called the alleged use of its data to train AI “immensely dangerous,” according to The Associated Press.

Referring to the trend towards the development of AI-generated new summaries as a method for the general public to discover news, Bauerlein appeared to express concerns that such developments represented an existential threat to the traditional news model:

“Our existence relies on users finding our work valuable and deciding to support it. When people can no longer develop that relationship with our work, when they no longer encounter Mother Jones or Reveal, then their relationship is with the AI tool.”

Center for Investigative Reporting’s lawsuit joins others aimed at OpenAI and its partner Microsoft from the New York Times, The New York Daily News, Chicago Tribune, Denver Post, and others over similar allegations.

Another partnership

Despite the company’s ongoing legal battles, however, OpenAI continues to expand both its operations — having recently acquired data analytics firm Rockset — and its news media partnerships.

As first reported by Axios, OpenAI and news corporation Time have entered into a multi-year content licensing deal and strategic partnership.

The deal will reportedly give OpenAI access to more than a century’s worth of Time magazine and news media articles while Time, for its part, will receive AI tools and, potentially, financial compensation.
