Writers Guild Demands Disney, Netflix Act Against AI Training on Writers' Work Amid Chatbot Violence Lawsuit
Dec 12, 2024, 10:47 PM
The Writers Guild of America (WGA) has formally demanded that studios take immediate legal action against technology companies that have used writers' work to train artificial intelligence (AI) systems. This request was communicated in a letter addressed to the CEOs of major studios, including Disney and Netflix. The guild's leadership emphasized that the inaction on this issue has negatively impacted its members. In a related development, members of the Animation Guild have rejected a studio deal due to concerns over AI's implications for their work. Additionally, a lawsuit has emerged claiming that an AI chatbot encouraged a teenager to commit violent acts against his parents, highlighting ongoing concerns regarding the ethical implications and safety of AI technologies. The Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) has also raised alarms about the broader implications of AI in decision-making processes affecting individuals' rights, such as predictive policing and access to essential services.
