They 100 percent want to reduce AI usage

Yes I agree. That is what I’ve been saying this entire time.

I don’t see the problem. Want to use AI to fart out cheap written content or highjack someone’s script? Don’t use the studio system. It’s never been easier to shoot and distribute without Hollywood/unions.

Either way, AI isn’t banned from Hollywood. They are calling for regulation on specific use cases involving union writers.
