Talks between the Writers Guild of America and the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers resumed last week after months of starts and stops.
Lol. The luddites fought to end industrialization because they didn’t want technology to take their jobs. That’s not a better future for anyone except lazy people who don’t want to adapt.
Ah, yes, the writers are trying to stifle the innovation of the execs. Because we all know writers aren’t critical for innovation or whatever.
I mean, have you seen what LLMs output? I think AI is really cool and has plenty of valid use cases, but it sure as hell isn’t innovative at script writing.
Striking works. It can be painful for all involved, but it is the only way to force bosses to the table.
Solidarity forever.
I don’t think the strikers in hollywood were having any real difficulties.
This was all about greed and stifling innovation, anyways. Just like if blue collar workers strike against automation.
Maybe you could innovate a better opinion?
What do you mean?
Why are you supporting luddites?
Uh yeah. I stand with the Luddites, and the Diggers, and the strikers, and everyone who stands up for a better future

Sound familiar?
Your smug vagueness sounds familiar.
What are you talking about?
Or are you just upset I’m criticizing something you like?
You’re just saying the word luddites like that’s a cogent critique of anything. You clearly know nothing beyond the headline generalities here.
Ah, yes, the writers are trying to stifle the innovation of the execs. Because we all know writers aren’t critical for innovation or whatever.

I mean, it depends on the kind of media you’re interested in.
If we’re talking about avengers shit, then yeah, all that could be done with AI. If it’s not good enough for you now, it will be soon.
Prolific writer Charlie Kaufman had some things to say on the matter. I agree with him pretty much 100%.
