Deep dives
SAG deal falls short in protecting actors against AI usage
The recent deal between SAG (Screen Actors Guild) and studios has raised concerns among SAG members due to the lack of protections against the use of artificial intelligence (AI) in the industry. While the deal does require consent and compensation for the creation of digital doubles, it also allows studios to withhold roles from actors who do not give consent. This issue particularly affects lower-level and background actors who may not have the same bargaining power. Additionally, the use of AI to generate crowds or background characters can lead to a deterioration in the quality of movies and TV shows. There are concerns that this precedent will impact the viability of acting as a career in the future.
