OpenAI has entered into a multi-year partnership with image copyright giant Getty, and will provide licensed images to ChatGPT.

Odaily Odaily reports that OpenAI has announced a multi-year image display partnership with image copyright giant Getty Images, integrating its licensed visual content into ChatGPT's search and discovery features. Getty Images previously sued an AI company over copyright issues related to AI training data, but the litigation has not progressed as expected. As AI-generated content capabilities improve, the core value of media and copyright agencies is shifting from individual works to "compliant licensed content libraries" and distribution channels for content integrated into AI products. Copyright disputes will continue, but business cooperation models are becoming an important direction for the integration of the AI ​​industry and the content industry. (Forbes)

Google's flagship model, Gemini 3.5 Flash, natively supports PC control, unlocking enterprise-level intelligent agent automation.

According to Beating's monitoring, Google has integrated the Computer Use functionality as a built-in tool directly into its main model, Gemini 3.5 Flash. Before native integration, developers had to use a dedicated Gemini 2.5 Computer Use model to execute agent tasks. With native integration, developers and enterprise users can directly control devices through the Gemini API or the Google Cloud Gemini Enterprise Agent Platform (formerly Vertex AI platform), simplifying agent development architecture. The built-in Computer Use tool receives screenshots from browsers, mobile devices, or desktop environments, performs visual perception and step-by-step reasoning, and then outputs operation commands such as mouse clicks, keyboard input, scrolling, and menu navigation to complete long-process automated tasks such as continuous software testing and cross-web data collection. To facilitate debugging and auditing, the model generates commands with an "intent" field to explain the logic of each operation. To address the risk of tooltip injection that agents may encounter in real-world network environments, Google has conducted targeted adversarial training on its models and provides two optional safeguards: mandatory human approval for irreversible operations such as payments and file deletions; and automatic task termination if indirect injection commands are detected in screenshots. Browserbase currently offers an online hosted demo environment (gemini.browserbase.com), and Google has also open-sourced a reference implementation called computer-use-preview on GitHub.
