French daily and website Le Monde has become the latest publisher to strike a deal with OpenAI, allowing the San Francisco company to use its journalists' work to train artificial intelligence systems. To deal with claims that AI firms have plagiarised content scraped from the internet in order to build tools like ChatGPT, publishers have taken different approaches.
Le Monde, the Associated Press and Axel Springer have all struck deals with OpenAI, while the New York Times and The Intercept are among those taking the company to court.
Creators without the deep pockets of large publishers are feeling left out and exploited, as FRANCE 24's Peter O'Brien explains.
