Just phenomenal how quickly the streaming service suits went from “go live under a bridge writers, AI can do your jobs!” to “sooooo we tried to write a script with ChatGPT ourselves and, um, yes we swear we won’t do it again please give us the humans back”
The WGA has “established regulations for the use of artificial intelligence (“AI”) on MBA-covered projects in the following ways:”

Perfect encapsulation of what makes reactionary centrists so dangerous: They genuinely believe it's possible to spend their entire careers amplifying right-wing messages without taking any responsibility for right-wing legislation.
