"The platform has secured seven, multi-year AI content licensing deals with publishers, including CNN, Fox News, People Inc., USA Today Co., to incorporate their content into its large language model (LLM), Llama. In the coming days, content from People Inc.'s new and archival content across household brand titles, including People, Better Homes and Gardens, Allrecipes, Food and Wine, will be intergated into Meta's LLM along with new and archival content from USA Today Co. and its network of 200 local publications and sports wires."
"All companies are being tight-lipped on the terms of the deals, which remain undisclosed. It's not clear whether they are lump-sum payments à la OpenAI's preference or the pay-per-use style adopted by the likes of Microsoft. Meta has trailed other AI companies' push into licensing deals, with OpenAI, Amazon, and Microsoft having all gone all in. In contrast, Meta has the fewest, having partnered with Reuters last year to use its content to answer user questions in real time about news and current events."

Deal terms remain undisclosed and payment structures are unclear. Meta had previously partnered with Reuters, and its new agreements formalize access to news content for AI training amid intense LLM competition and internal AI reorganization.
