Multiple Hollywood studios, including Netflix and Disney, are hiring expensive AI experts as writers and actors continue striking for AI regulations.
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Multiple major Hollywood studios have started hiring expensive AI experts as the WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes continue. One of the key reasons why Hollywood writers and actors are on strike is to fight for regulating the use of AI in creating movies and TV shows. Recently, though, Netflix posted a $900,000 AI product manager job listing, indicating studios are not backing down from utilizing AI for their companies.
Now, The Hollywood Reporter says other Hollywood studios are joining Netflix in hiring AI experts during the WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes. Disney is reportedly searching for AI and machine learning experts to join the company, while Sony is willing to pay up to $160,000 per year for an AI ethics engineer. Amazon and Apple have many listings for AI specialists too, with one listing for Prime Video promoting a $300,000 per year base salary.
What Hollywood's AI Job Listings Mean For The Writers & Actors Strikes The ongoing writers and actors strikes have halted production for many major movies and TV shows, including Deadpool 3, Gladiator 2, Stranger Things and The Last of Us among many others. It's unclear how long these strikes will go on, with some like author George R.R. Martin predicting a very long writers strike, comparing it to the 153-day strike of 1988.
With Hollywood studios now seeking AI experts to join them, it appears companies like Netflix and Disney aren't backing down on using AI in future productions. While AI could be a useful tool to check over script formatting or fix issues in post-production, strikers argue studios see AI as a way to take real actors and writers out of the production process.
Since Hollywood studios are publicly seeking AI experts for production purposes, negotiations with writers and actors about AI regulations will no doubt be impacted. These job listings could signal a lengthy Hollywood strike to come, as studios try to implement AI into future productions. With the future of AI in Hollywood seemingly confirmed, it seems the WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes will be continuing for quite some time.
