Video Title: SAG-AFTRA reviews offer from studios, but artificial intelligence still a sticking point
PEOPLE AND LEFT THOUSANDS HOMELESS. >>> AND STRIKING ACTORS ARE REVIEWING A NEW OFFER FROM THE HOLLYWOOD STUDIOS. >> IT IS BEING CATEGORIZED AS THE LAST, BEST, AND FINAL OFFER. BOTH SIDES HAVE BEEN AT THE BARGAINING TABLE FOR WEEKS THAT
BEGAN BACK IN JULY. STUDIOS HAVE WARNED IF NO DEAL IS REACHED, MAJOR FILMS WILL BE PUSHED BACK AND SHOWS WILL BE WIPED OUT FOR ALL OF 2024. >> CBS NEWS’S CARTER EVANS JOINS US NOW. CARTER, IT IS GREAT TO SEE YOU.
I’VE BEEN READING MATT A.I. — THAT A.I. IS A MAJOR STICKING POINT. WHY IS THAT? >> Reporter: WHEN YOU THINK ABOUT A.I. , WE ARE TALKING ABOUT USING A.I. IN THE WRITER’S ROOM OR USING A.I. TO WRITE SCRIPTS. THOSE ARE
PRETTY MUCH THE MAJOR ISSUES. WHEN YOU TALK ABOUT ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE WITH ACTORS, WITH ACTORS’ IMAGES, RE-CREATING ACTORS, RE-CREATING BACKGROUND ACTORS SO MAYBE YOU DON’T NEED AS MANY EXTRAS ANYMORE, THERE ARE A LOT MORE ISSUES TO LOOK AT WHEN IT COMES TO ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE.
WE ARE DEALING WITH A TECHNOLOGY THAT IS EVOLVING QUICKLY AND THEY’RE TRYING TO COME UP WITH A FRAMEWORK FOR A DEAL THAT WOULD LAST FOR YEARS HERE. THEY ARE TRYING TO ANTICIPATE WHERE ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE COULD GO AND SETTING UP A FRAMEWORK AROUND THAT.
>> CARTER, EVERY NEGOTIATION GETS TO A POINT OF, OKAY, FINE. IT IS WHEN YOU CONCEDE SOMETHING TO THE OTHER SIDE. LET’S PLAY A GAME OF OKAY, FINE WHEN IT COMES TO THE DEAL ON THE TABLE. WHAT ARE THE STUDIOS PROPOSING?
WHAT WILL THEY GIVE TO THE ACTORS? >> Reporter: I WANT TO BE CLEAR THERE IS NOT A LOT OF INFORMATION COMING OUT OF THE NEGOTIATING ROOM. THERE ARE SOME LEADS AND REPORTING AND THAT IS WHAT WE WILL TALK ABOUT HERE.
MY UNDERSTANDING IS THERE HAVE BEEN SIGNIFICANT CONCESSIONS FROM THE STUDIOS ON PAY, ON AVERAGE PAY AND THOSE SORTS OF THINGS. IT SEEMS THEY ARE MAKING PROGRESS ON RESIDUALS, ALTHOUGH IT’S NOT CLEAR EXACTLY WHERE THAT STANDS. IT IS A DIFFICULT SITUATION TO
FIGURE OUT RESIDUALS FOR STREAMING PLATFORMS. IT IS NOT LIKE ALL OF A SUDDEN YOU HAVE A SHOW AND IT GOES TO CABLE AND PAID TV, THESE OBVIOUS SITUATIONS YOU CAN úDET BASED ON ADVERTISING AND THOSE SORTS OF THINGS.
IT IS A MATTER OF DO YOU GIVE ACTORS A PORTION OF EACH STREAMING SUBSCRIPTION? THAT IS WHAT THE ACTORS WANTED AND THE STUDIOS SAID ABSOLUTELY NOT. IT APPEARS THERE IS PROGRESS BEING MADE THERE RIGHT NOW AS WELL AND A.I.
IS THE MAJOR STICKING POINT. >> SO, WHAT HAPPENS IF THE ACTORS DON’T AGREE? >> Reporter: WE ARE LOOKING AT THE END OF THE TV SEASON FOR THIS YEAR FOR SURE. YOU CAN IMAGINE THERE ARE PRODUCTIONS IN THE FINAL STAGES.
MAYBE THEY NEED A FEW PICKUP SHOTS, THINGS LIKE THAT. THE ACTORS CAN GO OUT AND PROMOTE THE MOVIES THAT ARE ALREADY FINISHED. YOU KNOW, A MOVIE WAS SUPPOSED TO OPEN THIS PAST WEEKEND AND IT WAS POSTPONED BECAUSE THE ACTORS ARE REFUSING TO COME OUT
AND PROMOTE THESE MOVIES. IF IT CONTINUES THROUGH THE END OF THE YEAR, WE’VE GOT OSCARS SEASON COMING UP. YOU PROBABLY WON’T SEE THEM AT THE OSCARS AND THAT WILL IMPACT PRODUCTIONS INTO NEXT YEAR, WHICH WOULD SIGNIFICANTLY SLOW THINGS DOWN SO THERE IS A LOT
OF TALK THAT IF THERE IS NOT A DEAL THIS WEEK, WE COULD BE LOOKING AT THE BEGINNING OF THE YEAR BEFORE THE ACTORS AND STUDIOS ARE TALKING AGAIN. OF COURSE, THE STUDIOS HAVE SAID THIS IS THEIR LAST, BEST, AND FINAL OFFER.
I DON’T KNOW IF ANYONE LISTENING HAS NEGOTIATED BEFORE, BUT MANY TIMES THAT CA

This deal IS TRASH – no added value to the consumer, makes acting non-viable as a stand-alone profession and means that we’ll be watching manufactured bots instead of people in a product that is of precipitously declining quality already: VOTE NO – period…
Watch the movie "the Congress"
You actors feel entitled to something you can't have. You all don't want a fair deal. Isn't this like the 7th time you all are rejecting the deal. It's just attention seeking at this point. You all tanked an industry where 10s of thousands depend on each check to feed their kids. Do what the writers did and sign the deal immediately.
SAG-AFTRA needs to stop nitpicking and sign the damn deal!! We need to get back to work!!
a perfect video for the day!
Kind of like the early 20th Century when Teamsters fought the use of Trucks versus Horses. They're fighting a lost cause.
