SAG-AFTRA actors' strike set to continue, as union warns of "alarming loopholes" for "AI abuse" in latest proposal

That explains a lot of AI slop in games, recently.
On the one hand, the strikes last time have my wife a difficult situation that caused her to have to unpaid overtime (and her company has no interest in AI no less!). On the other hand, her company was and still is actively union busting by emailing anti-union shit and lying. Iirc, they even hired a firm for it.
So, out of spite for those jackasses lying about unions, please keep fighting! (Plus, why can't the producers, like her, organize?)
- To your parenthetical, is that not what the Producers Guild of America is?
  
  Good question, I'm not sure if they cover video game industry but they probably should.
I don’t think a second strike will be as effective as the first. The Brutalist won a few Oscars and admitted to using AI.
