OpenAI partners with publisher of People magazine


OpenAI has partnered with Dotdash Meredith, the publisher of People magazine, to enhance its ChatGPT system. Dotdash Meredith said the collaboration will incorporate “trusted content” from the company’s array of brands — including “Better Homes & Gardens,” “Food & Wine” and “InStyle” — providing ChatGPT with access to recipes, health information, entertainment coverage and product reviews.

“We have not been shy about the fact that AI platforms should pay publishers for their content and that content must be appropriately attributed,” said Neil Vogel, CEO of Dotdash Meredith, said. “This deal is a testament to the great work OpenAI is doing on both fronts to partner with creators and publishers and ensure a healthy Internet for the future.”

Brad Lightcap, COO of OpenAI stated, “We’re thrilled to partner with Dotdash Meredith to bring its trusted brands to ChatGPT and to explore new approaches in advancing the publishing and marketing industries.”

As part of the licensing agreement, ChatGPT users will soon find links to the publisher’s various sites in relevant responses.

Additionally, OpenAI will collaborate with Dotdash Meredith to develop new AI products for its readers and improve its ad-targeting tools.

Dotdash Meredith joins other companies who have partnered with OpenAI, like the Financial Times, Axel Springer and The Associated Press.

Meanwhile, Alden Global Capital’s newspapers, including the New York Daily News and Chicago Tribune, have sued OpenAI and Microsoft for copyright infringement, echoing a previous lawsuit by The New York Times.
