In a noteworthy battle last year, Hollywood scriptwriters and actors engaged in a prolonged 148-day strike against studios to limit the incorporation of artificial intelligence in creative work. Emerging victorious, Hollywood screenwriters established crucial safeguards against AI in one of the earliest major labor disputes involving generative AI. Throughout the extensive walkout, the primary focus revolved around the contentious use of AI in scriptwriting.
