This is one of the most interesting topics to me because even though it doesn't particularly fall into hip hop or the gaming category,
overall entertainment, escapism is provided, in my opinion, solely by Hollywood actors.
I think the amount of movies and TV shows that we watch on a daily basis not only influences and not only has an immense,
influence on our life, but also brings us into a certain area where we can escape reality and just
watch our favorite show. So with that being said, this whole strike by the writers and actors
is very interesting to me and intriguing because not only does that mean that content is going
to start being postponed and indefinitely.
but Hollywood studios such as a Netflix such as a Disney such as a Sony is acting like they
can't give a care in the world like they don't care at all supposedly based off of grace Randolph
which I would definitely follow her she's of she's very much a professional when it comes to
covering TV and movies you know I just try I try my best but if you want to hear one of
the professionals grace randolph is who you should go to but anyways going off of what she said
she was basically saying that the hollywood studios wanted the writers back to put the actors in a
peculiar situation where they're the only one striking but when they met with the writers
apparently they couldn't come to a deal so now we're back to both of them still uh being on strike
so hollywood studios just like well forget both the both of them
As you can see in the title, they are quietly, quote unquote, hiring AI specialists amongst the, amid, amidst the writers and actors strike.
So Netflix is hiring a 900,000 per year AI product manager.
I ain't going to lie to y'all.
there's a certain word for that for the writers strike called scab i believe they say if you cross
that picket line for certain things once the strike is over you're going to be like blackballed or
whatever i don't know they keep throwing that word out called scab i don't know if this falls in line
with that but it seems pretty scabby to me i know that's not word i just made it up got to roll with me
so anyways um disney is looking for generative AI specialists and sony
is seeking an AI ethics expert.
So I don't know how much of the paying,
but it seems like it probably is the same
or if not more, a dollar amount than Netflix is offering.
And this is not good.
While this is not good, because all your favorite movies,
TV shows that you think are going to come out in the next year
are probably most likely going to get postponed
if they're being made in America.
The reason I say America is because apparently
if you're a Canadian actor
doing a Canadian movie, they can still
come out. So all of the people
who, like, Idris Alba,
I don't know if he's from the United States, not trying to be disrespectful.
I just honestly don't know.
If he does a movie in his home country,
I don't know if that's the same
because he's
not an American actor. I don't know if that works.
I don't know if that, you know, I'm not the
professional expert in that, but
I'm just putting forth
the case in a set
scenario because a certain Canadian actor Melissa Ford from the Joe Budden podcast says she was in a
movie in Canada and that doesn't make her a scab or against the WGA because apparently she's a
Canadian actor doing a movie in Canada. So that doesn't correlate with the WGA or the or SAG. I don't
know so many letters man. Like why is it so confusing? WGA and SAG.
So she's not a part of that so she can do Canadian movies.
So always I'm interested to see people or the actors who's not from America.
If they will go back, if it gets that serious,
because it seems like this is a sign that the studios are not trying to work with the writers,
actors at all.
So if it gets to that point where everything is really going to get pushed back,
maybe the actors will, well, the overseas actors who are not from America
will start making movies in the home country.
I don't know if that will happen, but we're going to see.
What else?
Yeah, that's basically it.
So instead of paying the writers and actors with their owed,
Hollywood Studios have resulted into hiring people to manage their AI technology.
So click my link to your in my bio.
Let me know one of my social medias.
What do you think about this whole Hollywood studios versus writers and actors?
And which side are you on?
And also, do you think in the long,
Well, when do you think this would be resolved?
Do you think it will be a while,
a.k.a. 6 to 10 months,
or do you think it would be resolved in the near future?
