VERBATIM: Under a new agreement, the state and tech companies would collectively pay roughly $250 million over five years to support California-based news organizations and create an AI research program. The initiatives are set to kick in in 2025 with $100 million the first year. The deal effectively marks the end of a legislation that would force tech companies to pay media companies for linking to their content.
