Shutterstock Partners With Meta to Fuel Generative AI Ambitions
In a bid to fuel innovations in generative AI, Shutterstock recently announced its partnership with Meta. With this, Shutterstock looks to be at the forefront of AI innovation and unleash the power of its expansive content library. Meta AI chief Yann LeCun said that by tapping into Shutterstock’s collection of millions of videos, images and music, the company plans to use these datasets to develop, train and assess its machine-learning capabilities. Shutterstock will now be tapping into Meta’s generative AI models, including the likes of Make A Scene, Make A Video, AudioGen, etc. Shutterstock chief Paul Hennessy believes that AI can potentially inspire creativity. He said that the company looks to expand its long-standing relationship with Meta, alongside its partnership with OpenAI and LG AI Research which was announced last year.

Hennessy said they are now looking to automate the busy work required to complete creative projects and help creators unleash their potential. He said their content would remain at the core of these advancements on and off their platform. With these partnerships, Shutterstock looks to invest in technology that quickly brings creative ideas to life, shaping the way for generative AI in an ethical and artist-centric way.
