SHUTTERSTOCK PARTNERS WITH OPENAI AND LEADS THE WAY TO BRING AI-GENERATED CONTENT TO ALL
This collaboration introduces OpenAI's seamless image generation capabilities to Shutterstock audiences worldwide — offering customers the ability to instantly generate images based upon the criteria they type in. That's what Shutterstock calls
This agreement further deepens the strategic partnership between Shutterstock and OpenAI, which began in 2021.
"The data we licensed from Shutterstock was critical to the training of DALL-E," said . "We're excited for Shutterstock to offer DALL-E images to its customers as one of the first deployments through our API, and we look forward to future collaborations as artificial intelligence becomes an integral part of artists' creative workflows."
When this integration launches on Shutterstock.com in the coming months, customers will receive direct access to these AI image generation capabilities improving their creative workflows. In turn, Shutterstock contributors will be compensated for the role their content played in the development of this technology.
Shutterstock believes that AI-generated content is the cumulative effort of its contributing artists. In an effort to create a new industry standard and unlock new revenue streams for the Company's artist community, Shutterstock has also created the framework to provide additional compensation for artists whose works have contributed to develop the AI models. The Company also aims to compensate its contributors in the form of royalties when their intellectual property is used.
To promote an ethical and inclusive framework for content and AI, Shutterstock is a proud sponsor and participant in the World Ethical Data Foundation's 2022 global conference. With a strong focus on the importance of inclusivity in technology, from hiring to reducing bias in systems and building checks and balances to help ensure ethical and inclusive data use, Shutterstock continues to drive advancements in both tech innovation and DEI across the creative industries.
And in an important effort to protect the IP rights of its artists, photographers, and creators, Shutterstock continues to lead in developing policy and procedures, and employs methods to ensure that usage rights and proper licenses are secured for all featured content -- including AI-generated content.
