OpenAI Partners with TIME to Train its Chatbot Model, ChatGPT
OpenAI partners with TIME, accessing 101 years of archives to enhance ChatGPT's training and technology.
OpenAI has secured a significant partnership with TIME magazine to enhance and train its chatbot model, ChatGPT. Announced on Thursday, this multi-year content deal will allow OpenAI to access TIME's archives spanning over 101 years. This partnership aims to bolster OpenAI's large language models with a wealth of historical and contemporary information, reinforcing TIME's commitment to expanding global access to accurate and trusted content.
TIME Chief Operating Officer Mark Howard said, "Throughout our 101-year history, Time has embraced innovation to ensure that the delivery of our trusted journalism evolves alongside technology." In the release, he stated, "This partnership with OpenAI advances our mission to expand access to trusted information globally as we continue to embrace innovative new ways of bringing TIME's journalism to audiences globally."
Through this collaboration, TIME will gain access to OpenAI's cutting-edge technology. This access will help TIME develop new products for its audience, providing vital feedback and practical applications to refine the delivery of journalism in ChatGPT and other OpenAI products. This synergy is expected to shape the future of news experiences, integrating advanced AI capabilities with traditional journalism.
This deal follows a similar partnership between OpenAI and News Corp, which was announced in May. The agreement with News Corp grants OpenAI access to current and archived articles from all its outlets, including The Wall Street Journal, MarketWatch, Barron's, and The New York Post. TIME now joins the ranks of News Corp and Reddit, which partnered with OpenAI to train its AI models on Reddit content.
OpenAI's CEO, Sam Altman, has expressed his ambition to build artificial general intelligence (AGI). This aspiration has sparked extensive discussions, particularly since the launch of ChatGPT in 2022. While tech experts, including AI pioneer Geoffrey Hinton, have warned about the potential risks of AGI, many supporters believe that with proper control, AGI will ultimately benefit humanity.
In a podcast with Dwarkesh Patel, OpenAI co-founder John Schulman expressed that AGI is on the horizon, emphasizing the need for collaborative efforts to ensure its safe development. Schulman discussed the future of AGI and strategies for maintaining control over its advancements.
As ChatGPT continues to gain popularity, there have been reports about OpenAI's plans to enhance the chatbot's capabilities and potentially enter the search engine market as a competitor to Google Search. Although Sam Altman has denied these rumours, he hinted at forthcoming updates and announcements related to ChatGPT.
Overall, the partnership with TIME is a strategic move for OpenAI. It leverages extensive historical and contemporary data to train its AI models. This collaboration benefits OpenAI and positions TIME to innovate and enhance its offerings through advanced AI technology. As the relationship between traditional media and artificial intelligence deepens, the future of news and information dissemination looks increasingly intertwined with technological advancements.
