Meta has reached deals to pay Fox News, CNN and several other news publishers in exchange for using their articles in its AI systems. The agreements aim to provide licensed news content to support Meta’s AI training and product features, addressing concerns about copyright and attribution. The negotiations reflect a broader trend among tech platforms to secure rights to news content as generative AI tools rely on vast text sources. No access is granted to non-licensed content; publishers will be compensated under the terms of these agreements. The deal underscores ongoing efforts to balance platform innovation with newsroom revenue and licensing rights.
