Meta has signed an AI licensing deal with News Corp that will allow the Meta AI maker to use content from The Wall Street Journal<\/em> and other brands in its chatbot responses and for training of its AI models. News Corp confirmed to Engadget that it had struck a deal with Meta, but didn’t provide specifics on the terms of the arrangement. According to The Wall Street Journal, Meta will pay News Corp. “up to $50 million a year” for a three-year deal that covers content from The Journal,<\/em> as well as the media giant’s other brands in the US and UK.<\/p>\n

News Corp previously struck a five-year deal with OpenAI that was valued at around $250 million. During a recent appearance at Morgan Stanley’s annual Technology, Media & Telecom (TMT) conference, News Corp CEO Robert Thomson hinted that the media company was in the “advanced stage with other negotiations.”<\/p>\n

He described the company’s overall approach to such arrangements as “a woo and a sue” strategy, depending on whether companies want to pay for content or scrape it without permission. “We have what you might call a woo and a sue strategy,” he said. “We’ll woo you. We’d like you to be our partner. But if you’re stealing our stuff, we are going to sue you. So there’ll be a discount for those who hand themselves in, and there’ll be a penalty for those that resist.”<\/p>\n
