I think it's even more goddamn nefarious than just destroying the planet for wealth - if some of the shit I've been reading is right, then AI has changed the game and this strike is our fucking chance to get ahead of the shit that these studios want to pull. In what world is it okay to pay an actor a single day's worth of work and retain their likeness in pepertuiry using AI generation.

I'll admit that I'm not very knowledge on the whole workings of the AI part of it, but I do feel like every actor should have full control over their likeness and how it should be recorded and how it is applied to AI.

From what I heard it's not even new technology but from ~2016, they're just trying to push it through again but now under the guise of AI

The 1% would murder us all and replace us with AI if given the chance, never forget that. They'd be too stupid to realize that the AI bots would take them out next.
