Reddit has announced an expanded collaboration with Google to make it easier for users to search for the content and conversations they want within the Reddit community. Content from Reddit will be displayed on Google’s platform through Reddit and Data API. This content will be used to efficiently train AI models.
The collaboration in accessing information on Reddit affects public posts, which Reddit says helps ensure that the content displayed on Google remains current and continuously updated from user-generated conversations. Previously, there were reports that Reddit was negotiating with an AI company to access data for training models, with an estimated contract value of around $60 million per year. While Reddit has not disclosed the value of this deal, it seems to be along the same lines.
TLDR: Reddit partners with Google to enhance content visibility and access, potentially engaging in AI model training collaborations.
