There is a tension at the heart of ChatGPT that may soon snap. Does the 
technology expand our world or constrain it? Which is to say, do AI-
powered chatbots open new doors to learning and discovery, or do they 
instead risk siloing off information and leaving us stuck with unreliable 
access to truth?

Earlier today, OpenAI, the maker of ChatGPT, announced a partnership with

Politico and Business Insider. The details are not altogether clear, but 
the announcement indicates that when you query ChatGPT, the bot will be 
able to spin up responses based on Axel Springer stories, accompanied by 
links to the stories themselves. Likewise, material from Axel Springer 
publications will be used as training data for OpenAI, advancing the 
company’s products—which may have already consumed something like the 
entire internet.
