"It's sort of like the Facebook days. That's how one publisher described the present situation between publishers and generative AI companies in one of the closed-door town hall sessions during the recent Digiday Publishing Summit."
"I found that it's difficult for smaller publishers to get those meetings [to discuss content licensing and revenue-sharing deals with AI companies] when there's no clear path to contact someone. They're not typically coming to us."
"Although the AI companies have struck licensing deals with some publishers, they seem to be unwilling to open their pocketbooks to all."
"OpenAI's head of media partnerships Varun Shetty said this week that the platform does not intend to strike ad revenue-sharing deals with publishers."
