OpenAI, a company specializing in artificial intelligence development, has begun negotiations with top media outlets including Fox, Time, and CNN. The talks are centered around obtaining a license to use their content for AI model training. This strategy is intended to preemptively address any future copyright infringement concerns.

Jessica Sibley, the CEO of Time magazine, spoke favorably of the potential agreement, emphasizing their aim to secure equitable compensation for the content they provide. The discussion is currently focused on a comprehensive licensing agreement that encompasses both photographic and video material.

This development follows a lawsuit filed against OpenAI by another leading publication, The New York Times, which accused the AI company of copyright violations and causing multi-billion-dollar losses. The newspaper alleges that OpenAI is seeking access to its content at a near-zero cost, a claim that OpenAI representatives have refuted.
