Varför det spelar roll
The collaboration marks a significant shift in how generative AI interacts with copyrighted material. By integrating licensed images, OpenAI can offer more relevant and legally secure visual responses, while Getty Images gains a new distribution channel and revenue stream. This partially addresses previous conflicts regarding the illegal use of images for AI training.
Vem påverkas
The partnership affects photographers and creators whose work is hosted by Getty Images, as they now gain new exposure. It also impacts ChatGPT users who will receive access to high-quality licensed images. Both OpenAI and Getty Images are strengthened by this collaboration.
