In this episode, we explore a collaboration between John Elkann, CEO of Exor and shareholder of GEDI, and Sam Altman, the visionary behind ChatGPT and OpenAI. The two are teaming up to integrate high-quality journalistic content from GEDI’s outlets, like La Repubblica and La Stampa, into ChatGPT. This partnership aims to enhance AI training by providing access to well-crafted articles, which could also serve as the foundation for a revolutionary AI-driven search engine, tentatively named SearchGPT. This new tool, expected to launch soon, is set to challenge traditional search engines like Google by delivering timely and reliable news and information, fundamentally reshaping how we interact with both AI and media.
