Hollywood Goes Dark as Writers Strike Over Higher Pay and AI

Television and film writers walked out on Tuesday after the Writers Guild of America and Hollywood Studios couldn't reach an agreement on a new contract. At the heart of the WGA's demands are higher pay and more residuals from streaming content; along with establishing a new policy on AI and authorship. Bloomberg's Thomas Buckley reports from LA.

ChatGPT has way better scripts than the woke Hollywood writers and best of all, it's free.

AI is replacing a lot of content-driven industries (i.e., music, movies, films, podcasts, video games, voice acting, etc.), enabling companies to reap 100% of the rewards of their projects without much human involvement.
