Microsoft announced Monday that it is working with media platform Semafor and other news organizations to help journalists produce content using generative artificial intelligence.
The giant Microsoft said in a post on its blog that through this cooperation, Microsoft will help organizations define and improve procedures and guidelines for the responsible use of artificial intelligence (AI) in intelligence gathering and business practices.
Semafor announced that it will launch a news feed called “Signals” that journalists can use to provide readers with analysis and insights on breaking news using tools from OpenAI and Microsoft.
The deal, the financial details of which were not disclosed, comes as Microsoft, along with ChatGPT maker OpenAI, faces a lawsuit from The New York Times over the unauthorized use of content it publishes to train artificial intelligence technologies.
OpenAI and Microsoft said that using copyrighted works to train AI products complies with “fair use,” a legal doctrine governing unlicensed use of copyrighted materials.
Microsoft also announced a collaboration with news organizations, including the Craig Newmark Graduate School of Journalism, the Online News Association and the GroundTruth Project, to explore ways to integrate generative AI into their work and newsrooms.
