The partnership grants OpenAI access to TIME's archives spanning 101 years, enabling the use of this content in AI-generated responses with citations and links to the original sources on Time.com. Further, the collaboration aims to expand global access to accurate and reliable information.
Mark Howard, TIME's Chief Operating Officer, said that the partnership aligns with TIME's history of innovation in delivering journalism. "This partnership with OpenAI advances our mission to expand access to trusted information globally," he said.
