I would kill for a Twilight Zone marathon
actually the best case scenario for the strikes (on top of "writers and performers are paid more than fairly for their incredibly valuable contributions to art and culture") is that we reach a point where movie theaters just start screening old films. i'm talking about golden age classics like the wizard of oz and casablanca or whatever but i'm also talking about cult classics or more recent movies that are just better in a theater and with an audience. set piece heavy action movies. fantasy films with sweeping orchestral scores. sing alongs of movie musicals. a twilight marathon. idk the possibilities are endless
in that moment, fantasy became reality

The WGA and SAG-AFTRA strike is so important in establishing rights and precedent for AI content. They are absolutely fighting for us. The possibility for AI abuse and misuse is at an all time high and there are already many who are pushing and using those tools for nefarious and unethical purposes. Actors and writers fighting against studios who want to use AI to steal their likeness and use it indefinitely without pay, or steal their writing style or use AI to write scripts and only hire people to edit them these are all things that can be applied outside of the entertainment industry as well. “My voice is my password” account protection is null and void. Face recognition soon will be as well. The amount of misinformation and lies that will be spread upon the public especially with the upcoming election will make the Facebook shit look like child’s play.
Every legal stand against the use of AI generated content creates precedent and shows law makers where public opinion stands.
I know AI generated art is cool to play with and seems harmless but it’s progressing so rapidly we do not have the technological abilities to contain it. Any filters for inappropriate content —and I don’t just mean porn but bomb recipes, nerve gas recipes can be gotten around relatively easily. There is no way to reliably detect original content from AI content. AI content is already beginning to fool search engines and results. Wikipedia articles and even news articles will soon be sourcing information and “first hand” evidence that’s completely fake. There are people trying to combat this, software that protects artists art from being data scraped, but it’s a temporary bandaid that will eventually be gotten around. Any encoding or software solution that would automatically “watermark” AI content could easily be removed. Elon Musk’s legal team has already tried to claim video evidence of him stating something legally binding, should be thrown out because the court can’t ascertain whether the video was real or AI generated. It puts all video and photographic evidence into real doubt and makes creating damning criminal evidence laughably easy.
This isn’t fear mongering. It’s just real fear. There’s already several experts and scientists trying to ring every alarm bell possible.
We need regulation and legislation immediately l mean like yesterday. And even with it, experts don’t know how enforceable it will be. But god damn had we better try. And anything we do try will be that much harder if a large portion of the entertainment industry is indiscriminately using this new technology to make content without having to pay people who inspired it or directly contributed to it’s existence. If we allow companies to profit of the use of AI we will all be pretty fucked. People have already lost their jobs. Entire industries may become obsolete and we should do everything in our ability to stop it.
Part of that means stop using the cool free AI apps and tools. It’s not actually free. And we will all end up paying for it the more you use it.
