Many major news outlets are blocking OpenAI's data collection tools.

According to Richard Fletcher, Director of Research at the Reuters Institute, websites of traditional print publications (such as The New York Times and Der Spiegel) are more likely to block AI data collectors than television and radio stations or digital news sites, with about 57% of them doing so.

News websites are less likely to block Google's AI crawler than OpenAI, with less than a quarter doing so, but "almost every website (97%) that decides to block Google's AI crawler is also blocking OpenAI's crawler."

The percentage of top online news websites blocking OpenAI ranges from 79% in the US to just 20% in Mexico and Poland. Meanwhile, the level of blocking of Google's AI data collector ranges from 60% in Germany to 7% in Poland and Spain.

In every country except Germany, leading news sites block OpenAI's data collector more often than Google's. Furthermore, almost every website that blocks Google AI also blocks OpenAI (97%).

This could be because ChatGPT is more prominent and widely used than Gemini (the new name for Bard), or it could be because the OpenAI crawler was released earlier.

But it's also possible that news organizations are more cautious about blocking Google due to concerns that doing so could affect their ranking in the search engine's results.
