SAG-AFTRA has called for a strike of all its members working in video games, with the union demanding that its next contract not allow “companies to abuse AI to the detriment of our members.”<\/p>\n

The strike<\/a> mirrors similar actions taken by SAG-AFTRA and the Writers Guild of America (WGA) last year, which, while also broader in scope than just AI, were similarly focused on concerns about AI-generated work product and the use of member work to train AI.<\/p>\n

“Frankly, it\u2019s stunning that these video game studios haven\u2019t learned anything from the lessons of last year\u2014that our members can and will stand up and demand fair and equitable treatment with respect to A.I., and the public supports us in that,\u201d Duncan Crabtree-Ireland, chief negotiator for SAG-AFTRA, said in a statement.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
