OpenAI is pouring more cash into local journalism, pledging $5 million in funding and $3 million in tech credits over the next two years to support the American Journalism Project. This isn’t about profit — OpenAI’s chief of IP, Tom Rubin, says it’s about proving AI can be a force for good. Building on their 2023 deal that launched the Project’s AI Studio, this new investment will expand access to AI tools for more newsrooms, helping them with fundraising, data, translation, and engagement. The goal? Create shared AI infrastructure for the entire nonprofit local news ecosystem. While OpenAI faces lawsuits from major media outlets, this move signals unwavering confidence in AI’s potential to revitalize journalism — even as the industry adapts.
