Neither side disclosed financial terms or whether OpenAI will use Getty content to train future models.\n\nGetty's stock jumped about 200 percent in premarket trading after the announcement, [Bloomberg reports](https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2026-06-22/getty-images-soars-200-in-early-trading-after-openai-deal). The stock had dropped roughly 55 percent earlier this year. Getty CEO Craig Peters said licensed content makes AI-powered search more useful and trustworthy.\n\nGetty initially [pushed back against AI image generation](https://the-decoder.com/image-and-art-platforms-ban-ai-images-from-dall-e-2-and-co/), then [built its own generator](https://the-decoder.com/nvidias-picasso-brings-generative-ai-to-adobe-getty-images-and-shutterstock/) and [sued Stability AI](https://the-decoder.com/uk-judge-rules-that-ai-image-generator-stable-diffusion-is-not-an-infringing-copy/). The company is also still waiting for approval of its $3.7 billion acquisition of Shutterstock.\n\n```\nAI News Without the Hype – Curated by Humans\n\n\t\t\t\t\tSubscribe to THE DECODER for ad-free reading, a weekly AI newsletter, our exclusive \"AI Radar\" frontier report six times a year, full archive access, and access to our comment section.\t\t\t\t\n\n\t\t\t\t\tSubscribe now\n```\n\n", "url": "https://wpnews.pro/news/getty-images-strikes-multi-year-deal-to-put-licensed-photos-in-chatgpt-search", "canonical_source": "https://the-decoder.com/getty-images-strikes-multi-year-deal-to-put-licensed-photos-in-chatgpt-search/", "published_at": "2026-06-22 15:16:12+00:00", "updated_at": "2026-06-24 00:06:56.904322+00:00", "lang": "en", "topics": ["generative-ai", "ai-products", "ai-ethics"], "entities": ["Getty Images", "OpenAI", "ChatGPT", "Craig Peters", "Stability AI", "Shutterstock"], "alternates": {"html": "https://wpnews.pro/news/getty-images-strikes-multi-year-deal-to-put-licensed-photos-in-chatgpt-search", "markdown": "https://wpnews.pro/news/getty-images-strikes-multi-year-deal-to-put-licensed-photos-in-chatgpt-search.md", "text": "https://wpnews.pro/news/getty-images-strikes-multi-year-deal-to-put-licensed-photos-in-chatgpt-search.txt", "jsonld": "https://wpnews.pro/news/getty-images-strikes-multi-year-deal-to-put-licensed-photos-in-chatgpt-search.jsonld"}}
