Hollywood’s Fight Against A.I. Will Affect Us All: Screenwriters, actors, authors, and artists are fighting to ensure that human beings are not shunted to the margins of our culture.::Screenwriters, actors, authors, and artists are fighting to ensure that human beings are not shunted to the margins of our culture.
Generative AI is coming for a lot more jobs than just writers and actors. We need to think of more creative solutions than “copyright harder”.
Alexa, generate me an action movie that is a cross between Mission Impossible and The Matrix.

If AI can replace your writing you’re not a very good writer. Specially our dumb little chatGPT. Maybe in a few years…maybe.
I really think the energy being spent on this strike, specially the AI demands, really is a fools errand. Even if the studios in the USA agree to no AI, it does not mean the rest of the world won’t use AI either. They will and they will create so much content that Hollywood will be a thing of the past.
The irony of this strike is now…more than any other time in history, the power is with the individual not the studios. An individual writer today is on the precipice of being able to work with AI to write, create, edit and produce any story they wish to tell. They are the studio now that are able to do the work of massive teams of people in the past. It is the studios that are most at risk here as they suddenly will be competing with individuals and you better believe that there is going to be some truly amazing content in many more genres than we have ever seen. a flood of content is coming. Sort of like how YouTube exploded content from small to bigger creators that only massive studios were Making previously. Got a story you want to tell…now is the time to start paying attention to AI developments as it is happening whether the USA laws/strikes want it to or not.
If you are a writer, I urge you to start using AI and learn how to produce your own content as fighting the change is time not spent adapting.
