Amazon is reportedly planning to launch a marketplace where media publishers can license their content directly to AI companies for training data. The move follows Microsoft's recent launch of a similar Publisher Content Marketplace and comes amid ongoing legal battles over copyrighted material in AI training datasets. Publishers see this as a potential revenue stream to offset traffic losses from AI-generated summaries in search results, while AI companies seek legally safe sources of training data.
