"Our SearchGPT prototype is being tested with new search features that enhance the speed and ease of finding reliable information sources. We are integrating our conversational models with web information to provide fast and accurate answers with relevant sources."

OpenAI announced that the SearchGPT prototype includes direct links to news stories and plans to incorporate these features into ChatGPT in the future.

Some media outlets are partnering with AI startups like OpenAI to create content.

In July, Perplexity AI introduced a revenue-sharing model for publishers after more than a month of plagiarism allegations. The first to join the company's "Publishers Program" were media outlets and content platforms such as Fortune, Time, Entrepreneur, The Texas Tribune, Der Spiegel, and WordPress.com.

In June, OpenAI and Time magazine announced a "multi-year content deal" that will enable OpenAI to access current and archived articles from over a century of Time's history. Through this agreement, OpenAI will be able to display Time's content within its ChatGPT chatbot in response to user inquiries and utilize it to improve its products, most likely to train its AI models.

In May, OpenAI formed a partnership with News Corp. to access current and archived articles from various publications, including The Wall Street Journal, MarketWatch, Barron's, and the New York Post. Additionally, Reddit announced in May that it would partner with OpenAI to train its AI models on Reddit content.

As AI-generated content becomes increasingly common, other news publications and media outlets are actively defending their businesses.

In June, the Center for Investigative Reporting, a nonprofit newsroom established in the United States, filed a lawsuit against OpenAI and its primary funder, Microsoft, in federal court, accusing them of copyright infringement. This legal action followed similar suits brought by other publications, including The New York Times, the Chicago Tribune, and the New York Daily News.

In December, Microsoft and OpenAI were sued by The New York Times for intellectual property violations related to the use of its journalistic content in ChatGPT training data. The Times claimed it seeks to hold the two companies accountable for "billions of dollars in statutory and actual damages" related to the "unlawful copying and use of the Times's uniquely valuable works," according to a filing in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York. OpenAI disagreed with the Times' characterization of events.

In April, the Chicago Tribune and eight other newspapers filed a lawsuit.
