Thomson Reuters Corp. is in talks with generative AI providers to license the news and data organization’s content and could strike a deal similar to Axel Springer SE’s agreement with OpenAI.
“We’ve been in discussions with a number of those providers,” Chief Executive Officer Steve Hasker said in an interview with Bloomberg on Monday, declining to specify who he’s speaking to. “Reuters has had a very open-minded stance in terms of licensing our content to the leading large language model providers. We will have more on that this year.”
