Hollywood Is on Strike Against High-Tech Exploitation::As both writers and actors are on the picket lines in Hollywood, the stakes couldn’t be higher: Will average entertainment workers be able to eke out a living in an industry awash in cash, or will studio executives use new tech like AI to gobble up all of it?

Hollywood is on strike about a whole bunch of things, mostly about not getting paid for their work. AI is a teeny-tiny part of it. It sure does sell newspapers, though!
