The AI resistance just seems so goofy. I'm on the writers side here but can't agree with their AI assessment. It's not going to be blocked that's ridiculous.

To think that free global market will somehow be united and refuse clear efficiency is dumb. How would you even prove that AI wasn't used in my movie? How will this be enforced?

For a bunch of writers they sure fail to write out their own arguments huh

Reading the article it seems that they are not trying to block AI, they just want their fair share of the IP if their likeness is going to be used.

Seems completely reasonable to me. This shit is going to get weird if we declare that no one has the right to their own image. Imagine you get scanned and then all the sudden your face or one that looks almost exactly like it starts showing up in a bunch of pornos.

That doesn't make much sense either tbh. That's not how AI works. It literally learns from past experience so how do you attribute this? If I go to a louvre and with that inspiration paint a painting who do I attribute? It's impossible to determine "who's likeness was used".

Honestly I think this AI ignorance is why the writers/actor strike will fail.

Copyright maximalists is not the answer to the externalities if AI.
