The New York Times announced on Thursday it would partner with Amazon and allow the company to use its content as part of its artificial intelligence (AI) capabilities.
The multi-year licensing agreement will bring Times editorial content to a variety of Amazon customer experiences and "broadens the companies' existing relationship, and will bring additional value to Amazon customers and bring Times journalism to wider audiences," they said in a statement.
The agreement will allow Amazon to use editorial content from The New York Times, NYT Cooking and The Athletic for AI-related uses, including a real-time display of summaries and short excerpts of Times content within Amazon products and services, such as Alexa, and training Amazon’s proprietary foundation models.
"The collaboration will make The New York Times’s original content more accessible to customers across Amazon products and services, including direct links to Times products, and underscores the companies’ shared commitment to serving customers with global news and perspectives within Amazon’s AI products," the Times said in announcing the deal.
The partnership comes as the Times is locked in litigation with OpenAI over what the news outlet says is copyright infringement the tech company is engaged in through its usage of Times content in ChatGPT.
In March, a judge ruled the Times case against OpenAI can proceed while dismissing smaller elements of the newspaper's copyright suit.
Amazon was founded by billionaire tech tycoon Jeff Bezos, who also owns The Washington Post, one of the Times' top business competitors.
