Anthropic signs first paid news licensing deal with the Associated Press
What happened
On November 5, The Decoder reported that Anthropic had refused licensing deals with news publishers on fair use grounds, while publishers kept pushing talks by blocking its crawler; OpenAI had already signed more than ten similar agreements. Anthropic then signed its first news publisher licensing deal with the Associated Press before the US midterms, paying for news content so Claude could show live election results with source labels on election night. Adweek reported the deal, citing two people familiar with it. The amount and term are not public.
