Actors' Strike Parallels, 'Black Mirror' Plot About , AI's Impact on Hollywood.
For the first time in 43 years, actors in Hollywood
have gone on strike, bringing the U.S.
film and television industry to a halt.
BBC reports that one of the driving forces behind
the strike is the emergence of artificial intelligence.
.
The Screen Actors Guild (SAG-AFTRA) warned that
"artificial intelligence poses an existential threat to
creative professions" as the strike went into affect.
SAG-AFTRA's chief negotiator,
Duncan Crabtree-Ireland, accused studios of seeking
the ability to make scans of actors and use their likeness , "for the rest of eternity, in any project they want,
with no consent and no compensation.".
People have been quick to point out that
the situation closely resembles an
episode of Charlie Brooker's 'Black Mirror.'.

The latest season includes an episode titled
'Joan is Awful,' in which a Hollywood star grapples with the discovery that their AI likeness can be used without their knowledge.
We're seeing this technology used in
a range of things like automated
audiobooks, synthesized voiceover
work, digital avatars for corporate
videos, or also the role of deepfakes
that are being used in films, Liam Budd, U.K. acting union Equity, via BBC.
The rapid emergence of AI over
the past year has thrown the concept
of ownership of one's likeness into question.
BBC reports that whenever someone inputs their likeness
into an AI-generated portrait app, the images produced
remain in the public domain and free to use by anyone.

According to a report by The Institute for Public Policy
Research (IPPR), younger workers, women and lower-
wage workers stand to lose the most to AI automation.
The IPPR's report found that entry-level, part-time
and administrative jobs face the highest risk of
being replaced by AI in a "worst-case scenario.".
Over the next three to five years, the thinktank
warns that more companies will use generative AI
technology to automate everyday workplace tasks.
The IPPR found that 11% of tasks currently
done by workers are at risk.
This includes database management, scheduling and
stocktaking, which could displace entry-level workers in the
secretarial, administrative and customer service sectors.

stocktaking, which could displace entry-level workers in the

The IPPR warns that the number
could increase to 59% of tasks in a
second wave if AI technology is developed
to handle more and more complex tasks. .
The second wave could impact higher-earning jobs
that involve less routine tasks surrounding database
creation, copywriting and graphic design. .
The IPPR warns that women , "are more likely to work in the most
exposed occupations, such as secretarial
and administrative occupations.".
According to the report, the worst-case
scenario for the second wave of AI could impact
7.9 million jobs, which would negate productivity
gains with zero growth in GDP for up to five years.
