OpenAI is going to train its AI with your Reddit posts

This is a similar agreement to the one Reddit signed with Google earlier this year, valued at 60 million dollars. Now OpenAI will say that…

OpenAI has signed an agreement to access real-time content from the Reddit data API, which means it can display site discussions on ChatGPT and other company tools.

This is a similar agreement to the one Reddit signed with Google earlier this year, worth 60 million dollars.

The agreement will also “allow Reddit to offer new AI-based features to Reddit users and mods” and utilize OpenAI’s large language models to create applications. OpenAI has also signed on to become an advertising partner of Reddit.

The Reddit community does not see it in a good light

Redditors have already expressed their opinion about how Reddit executives manage the platform, and it remains to be seen how they will react to this announcement.

More than 7,000 subreddits went dark in June 2023 after users protested against Reddit’s changes in their API prices. Recently, after the news of a partnership between OpenAI and the programming message board Stack Overflow, there were people who were suspended after trying to delete their posts.

In the blog post announcing the agreement, the financial terms were not disclosed, and neither of the two companies mentioned the training data either. This last detail differs from the agreement with Google, in which Reddit explicitly stated that it would provide Google with “more efficient ways to train models.”

The company has not always been friendly with companies that extract their data to train artificial intelligence models. At one point, it threatened to block access to the site to Google’s web crawlers.

Apparently, OpenAI also informed the moderators of the subreddit r/ChatGPT that they had violated OpenAI’s copyright by using the ChatGPT logo as a profile picture.
