Italian media group, GEDI, and OpenAI, the AI research and deployment company behind ChatGPT, have today announced a strategic partnership to bring Italian-language content from GEDI’s portfolio of high-quality news outlets to OpenAI’s users. 

Under the partnership, ChatGPT users will have access to attributed quotes, content and links to GEDI’s publications, including La Repubblica and La Stampa.

From today, ChatGPT users will be able to rely on articles and in-depth analyses from our publications to obtain top quality information on a wide range of topics, with a special focus on the Italian context.”
