IAPE Members Call on Dow Jones Leadership to Hold OpenAI Town Hall

Read and sign our open letter to Dow Jones here

In May, News Corp inked a $250 million deal with OpenAI. At the time, corporate announcements about the new partnership were long on hype and woefully short on details of how the influence of OpenAI might impact employees.

That hasn’t changed.

Months later, throughout Dow Jones, employees are encouraged to use new artificial intelligence tools and development has been underway on projects, but we still have not seen any meaningful information on how the company plans to use AI that could affect the jobs of IAPE members. 

You deserve to know how the OpenAI partnership will affect your job. Sign the IAPE open letter calling for a town hall to answer members’ important questions.

The letter calls on management to “offer a transparent roadmap for any changes.” IAPE members are encouraged to sign this open letter. To add your name, click here. 

We look forward to management’s response.
