CNN has agreed to a multi-year partnership with Google to explore generative AI tools for driving audience engagement. This marks CNN's first deal since Skydance's merger with Paramount, aiming to leverage new technology while protecting its intellectual property.

Skydance’s CNN said on Thursday it had agreed to a multi-year partnership with Google to explore how generative AI could help drive audience engagement across the network.

The deal marks the first partnership announced since Skydance’s merger with Paramount, under CEO David Ellison, who has sought to position the media group as a technology-driven business.

As part of the deal, CNN will provide enhanced content rights for experimental features in Google’s products.

“Google’s innovation with generative AI has changed how people discover information and content, and now those tools will help us explore new ways to discover and engage audiences,” said Sam Felix, CNN’s senior vice president of strategic partnerships and business development.

CNN said the deal is in line with its strategy to protect its intellectual property, adding that it has multiple commercial partnerships and ongoing discussions with other industry players.

The network operates television, streaming and digital news services worldwide, including CNN International and CNN Originals, as well as a direct-to-consumer subscription service and CNN Newsource.
