To improve and train its AI products, OpenAI, under the direction of Sam Altman, has teamed up with Vox Media and The Atlantic.

News publishers may also profit from these kinds of partnerships, as they usually dont get a cut of the money produced when internet firms distribute their material. Verge and Vultures parent company, Vox Media, will collaborate with OpenAI to create consumer and advertising products and grant access to its archives to enhance ChatGPTs functionality. A similar agreement, which included Atlantic Labs, an "experimental microsite" to test OpenAIs technology, was announced by The Atlantic.
