The partnership with Google marks Reddit’s first known agreement with a major company building AI.
Google and social media platform Reddit have formed a partnership where Reddit will supply its content for training the search engine giant’s artificial intelligence (AI) models. In an announcement, Reddit said it will offer Google improved methods for training models.
Through the collaboration, Google can use Reddit’s data application programming interface (API), which provides real-time content from Reddit’s platform, allowing access to Reddit’s extensive content and enabling the display of Reddit content across Google’s products.
