Under the partnership, the Guardian says reporting and archive journalism will be available as a news source within ChatGPT, alongside the publication of attributed short summaries and article extracts.
In addition, the Guardian says it will also roll out ChatGPT Enterprise to develop new products, features and tools.
This announcement comes a year after the Guardian published its approach to AI, focused on ensuring that any use of genAI is under human oversight and for the benefit of its readers, its business and its wider mission. This considered approach to AI continues as the Guardian Media Group says it explores agreements with both existing and emerging businesses to ensure fair compensation and attribution for its journalism.
Keith Underwood, chief financial and operating officer, Guardian Media Group said: “This new partnership with OpenAI reflects the intellectual property rights and value associated with our award-winning journalism, expanding our reach and impact to new audiences and innovative platform services.”
Brad Lightcap, chief operating officer, OpenAI said: "Our partnership with Guardian Media Group furthers our goal of supporting world-class journalism and enriches the ChatGPT experience by providing access to relevant, real-time news content. It’s part of our overall strategy to help publishers and audiences benefit from advanced AI technology."
