The thing is, the protections writers won only protected them when working WITH AI. I.e. companies can’t hire unionized writers and pay them less because they are using AI. If they can skip the writers all together all those protections go out the window.
I’m not saying this will happen soon or at all. I’m just saying that if the models become capable or generating screen ready material the protections writers won won’t matter anymore.
