I’m not advocating a head in the sand approach. The entertainment industry takes advantage of technological innovations all the time and it impacts what we see on the big and small screen whether it’s digital cameras, CGI special effects, or AI generated images or scripts. If the WGA sees the economics of streaming an existential threat then they have to focus their negotiations on that. If they want to add AI to the negotiations they are going to have to give up something in streaming rights.
The kinds of movies and shows Bateman cites have no interest to me. But I won’t be who they are targeted to and younger generations are brought up on video games and CGI graphics. So I don’t see it as an imminent crisis but that could also be my bias.
