Shutterstock will provide training data for AI models as part of expanding its partnership with OpenAI.  The collaboration strengthens Shutterstock's commitment to developing AI innovation and gives them priority access to OpenAI's most recent technology. Stock galleries and generative AI startups have had a tense relationship due to concerns about copyright and compensation. Shutterstock has adopted generative AI and collaborated with OpenAI to introduce a DALL-E 2 image maker. Shutterstock runs a contributor fund to pay artists for their time spent helping to train generative AI models. After the firm announced an expanded, six-year relationship with ChatGPT-maker OpenAI on Tuesday, shares of Shutterstock surged 8%.
