    Or in America.

    In the long term, AI is going to be such a massive force multiplier that you’ll be able to get away with non union writers and actors.

    If all goes well you will be able to produce a film in your basement and have it rival the quantity of the current big boys. That will be a long while, but in the meantime any industry that loses a 2x productivity boost will die to its competition.

    Especially in the modern world. Centralized stars and production is crazy in a world where you can pull out a camera and buy a rendering supercomputer for a few thousand dollars.

      Maybe years down the road, but we’re talking about today. Making a non-union movie and expecting it to be something like a Marvel movie- it won’t. It will be a movie that will end up on Mystery Science Theater 3000 because it will suck.

        A deal made today will still be in effect in a decade, and the use of AI is already in effect in smaller ways, especially with the deage tech.
