BRAVE NEW WORLD: The Writers Guild of America (WGA) has given a thumbs up to artificial intelligence penning scripts so long as the writers keep their credits and residuals.

to help write a script without having to share writing credit or divide residuals. Or, a studio executive could hand the writer an AI-generated script to rewrite or polish and the writer would still be considered the first writer on the project.

In a series of tweets on Wednesday, the WGA laid out the groundwork for its proposal that the union previously discussed during its first bargaining session on Monday with the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers . The AMPTP has given no indication as to what it thinks of the proposal as of yet.

The union further proposed that writers “may not be assigned AI-generated material to adapt, nor may AI software generate covered literary material.”

That’s opening pandoras box, eventually the writers will lose. But do they really have any other choice?

So, artificial intelligence means we’re sold artificial stories? Watch how fast the pmt rates for writers drops… 🙄

If AI can write scripts, why would we still pay writers? They are superfluous, lacking the breadth of knowledge and understanding of an AI writer. Let all writing henceforth be AI generated, and free. :-)

Better than Rian Johnson.

Hahaha look at all the writer's they just put out of work 🤣🤣🤣

Yeah, as if they weren't doing it already

Hollywood is so bereft of actual talented writers they are going to produce AI sanitized woke garbage

I’m a writer. I won’t be using AI to help write my novels. How can anything artificial create emotion and tension needed to move a story forward? My voice is uniquely mine. I won’t water it down.

BaronDestructo Do you have thoughts on this?

As if hollywood hacks even tried at their job these days!

HOW long until Hollywood produces the first AI-written & Directed movie?🤔

Can't be any more derivative than Hollywood is already

So AI over quota hires that suck?

They aren't already? Guess it's just the writers who've sucked at their jobs?

👎

Recent scripts sùck so bad, I thought they already were.

This is so wrong on so many levels since of course the AI would lean left🤦‍♀️

Derp

I am going to be an author!! 😛

LOL, no need for script writer just become lazy I guess.

Disney’s been doing that for years with the MCU, Pixar and Star Wars.

So writers will be paid to pretend movies aren’t written by machines. Some hack is going to win an Oscar for a chatGPT script soon

Hollyweird like a cat in two way, 1.) has many lives after dying, and 2.) always arranges things such that it lands on its feet...

Just when you thought that Hollywood scripts could not get any less interesting ...

How refreshing it will be to see a new take on movies! Hollywood hasn’t had an original idea since the Raiders of the lost Ark.

Starting off by enslaving the AI? Great idea. :P

Do no work and still get paid. Nice to be elite

They have no creativity left?

I cannot even get a script approved. They all team me I have to join the guild. When I try to join the guild, I’m asked what scripts of mine have been used in guild approved situations … maybe I just pretend to be AI?

Next is country music so get ready for more dirt roads, tailgates, and bonfires on a Friday night…🙄

Lmao

ThatsThatIsh

maybe we would get something new? instead wash rinse repeat wash rinse repeat wash rinse repeat wash rinse repeat wash rinse repeat

If the oven doesn’t fix the toaster then how will we know if the dog food is any good?

This is some weird shit 🤨

😂😂😂🤦‍♂️
