Google has entered into a significant agreement with Reddit, paying $60 million annually for the rights to use Reddit's user-generated content (UGC) to train its AI systems. This deal, which amounts to $200 million over three years, highlights the increasing value of data for AI development. In a similar vein, OpenAI has committed $250 million over five years to access content from News Corp, which includes publications like The Wall Street Journal, New York Post, and The Sun. The use of social media and news content for AI training has sparked discussions about the quality and implications of such data sources.
so maybe Google did that 60 million dollar deal with Reddit and decided to train on only that data
