ALPHABET-owned Google has agreed to pay News Corp, the owner of the Wall Street Journal, between $5 million and $6 million per year to develop new AI-related content and products. The news was reported on Tuesday, April 30.
According to a News Corp employee and another person familiar with the matter, the new arrangement is part of a long-standing partnership between Google and News Corp.
A News Corp spokesperson said, “We do not have an AI content licensing deal with Google at all. However, we do have several partnerships with Google across our businesses.”
AI companies are looking to collaborate with news organisations to licence archived content for chatbot training.
Similar partnerships exist between OpenAI and news publishers such as the Financial Times and Axel Springer, whose brands include Politico.
