Apple is seeking permission from news and publishing organizations to use their material in the development of generative artificial intelligence systems.
The company has offered multiyear deals worth at least $50 million to license news article archives.
Apple's negotiations with publishers like Condé Nast, NBC News, and IAC mark its entry into the race to develop generative AI.
While other companies have already released products built with generative AI, Apple has been absent from the public discussion of AI.
Some publishers have expressed concerns about Apple's terms, but others are optimistic about the potential for a meaningful partnership
