The training of large language models requires massive amounts of data, and copyright issues have always been a major challenge for AI companies. Recently, OpenAI and Apple have taken active measures to deal with this problem and clear obstacles for the development of AI technology. OpenAI signs an agreement with news publishers to pay millions of dollars per year to license copyrighted news articles to train its AI models; Apple also plans to spend at least $50 million to purchase data from media companies. These measures can not only effectively avoid potential infringement risks, but also provide better and richer training data for AI models, thereby promoting greater progress in AI technology.
According to "The Information", OpenAI signed an agreement with news publishers to pay US$1 million to US$5 million per year to license copyrighted news articles to train its AI models. Apple also plans to work with media companies, paying at least $50 million in data fees. These cooperations can help AI companies avoid infringement lawsuits and obtain more training data to promote the development of AI technology.
The actions of OpenAI and Apple set an example for other AI companies, and also indicate that AI companies and media organizations will cooperate more closely in the future. Through reasonable business cooperation, AI technology development and intellectual property protection can achieve a win-win situation, ultimately promoting the healthy development of the AI industry and benefiting all mankind.
