The whole industry is being driven off a cliff by assholes in suits.
ChatGPT is terrible at coming up with original ideas, and the script it writes is terrible, so I’m not TOO worried yet.
Do support the strike though.
The bigger issue is anything AI generated is not copyrightable. So they have a choice writers and copyright or AI and no copyright.
Today that’s true, but a year ago it had trouble writing a paragraph.

Should be noted that this is, effectively, a publicity stunt. The studios are never going to pay anyone on a W-2 $1m, let alone some asshole they only need to parade for the cameras before the writers cave
I wouldn’t be surprised if these are fake postings designed to get headlines and freak out the picketers - won’t cost studios a dime to post and not fill it, and might hasten contracts or get concessions.
Also sure it’s foreshadowing a time when AI matures and studios lobby for copyright changes.
