CTOnews.com, December 14 (Xinhua)-- News and publication giant Springer Publishing Group (Axel Springer) and ChatGPT developer OpenAI announced an unprecedented agreement to allow ChatGPT to summarize news articles from Politico and Business Insider. Springer has also become the first publishing organization in the world to work with OpenAI to further integrate journalism with artificial intelligence technology, an important milestone in the media's struggle for financial compensation for the use of its content in artificial intelligence tools.

CTOnews.com noted that the agreement comes at a time when publishers, artists, writers and technology experts are suing or considering legal action against the developers of generative AI tools because they are accused of using their content or work in their training data.

After the agreement between OpenAI and Springer takes effect, when users ask ChatGPT questions, it will respond with abstracts of news articles from Politico, Business Insider, Bild and Welt. According to the press release, the chat robot will also provide articles that were originally limited to subscribers and will "mark the source and link to the full article to ensure transparency" in the answer.

The agreement follows OpenAI's agreement with the Associated Press in July, which allows OpenAI to use Associated Press news archives as training data.

As part of the agreement, Springer will provide its media brand content as training data for OpenAI's large language models, such as GPT-4, the AI model that supports ChatGPT.

A study released in October by the News Media Alliance (News Media Alliance), a trade group of more than 2200 publishers, shows that data sets used to train popular artificial intelligence models are "significantly" more dependent on publisher content, ranging from five times to nearly 100 times more than general web content.
