Hollywood Shuts Down After 160,000 Actors Walk Off the Set ( youtu.be )

It’s interesting to see that the discussion about AI (which the writer and actors strikes are based on) have an impact on workers in the US.

We hopefully experience the strengthening of unions and work reforms. Ideally, this will be a general movement bringing back policies that have been teared down since Regean.

It’s not ONLY about AI though. It’s one amongst many issues, such as being paid next to nothing in residuals for being in wildly successful streaming shows, having no job security and generally being at the mercy of cruel and capricious bosses who decide their future on a whim and are even capable of enacting de facto blacklists if they get pissed off.
