Hollywood strikes: Are writers right about AI? | Ents & Arts News

Aug 9, 2023 | Entertainment, News



It’s been 100 days since Hollywood writers went on strike over concerns artificial intelligence (AI) will take their jobs – as well as disputes over working conditions and claims of dwindling pay.

The looming cloud of AI hangs over all industries, but are writers and actors right to be worried about being stripped of their creativity?

On the Sky News Daily, Sally Lockwood is joined by Lisa Holdsworth – a TV and theatre writer, and chair of the Writers’ Guild of Great Britain – as well as Dr Alex Connock, senior fellow at the University of Oxford’s Saïd Business School, to talk about how AI is reshaping their industry.

She’s also joined by Sky’s arts and entertainment reporter Jayson Mansaray to discuss whether a happy ending is in sight for the strikers.
