Thank you so much. I appreciate the time.
I just wanted to say that I think what's interesting is that, in at least the writers strike, what was being negotiated was access to data and trying to ensure that workers were able to understand their place in the organization, which I think is an important thread.
There was also a concern that, if you're talking about franchise models and about generating the next Marvel movie, then you're talking about a type of cultural production that is really oriented towards keeping the same type of content being churned out. I think that's where workers were concerned that their scripts or their content would be used to train models that ultimately would either undermine their bargaining power or replace them. That's important only to point out the kind of context and where there is a benefit or perceived value in this kind of automated content generation.
The third thing is what actors are negotiating for—and this seems like a clear split—which is whether they have a right to their face and whether studios have, in perpetuity, access to modify their images. That I think all speaks to the idea that workers need to have data rights and privacy rights. I think the actors guild and the writers guild have really been the ones at the forefront of demonstrating what is a broad concern, not just in Hollywood.
