BRAVE NEW WORLD: The Writers Guild of America (WGA) has given a thumbs up to artificial intelligence penning scripts so long as the writers keep their credits and residuals.
to help write a script without having to share writing credit or divide residuals. Or, a studio executive could hand the writer an AI-generated script to rewrite or polish and the writer would still be considered the first writer on the project.
In a series of tweets on Wednesday, the WGA laid out the groundwork for its proposal that the union previously discussed during its first bargaining session on Monday with the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers . The AMPTP has given no indication as to what it thinks of the proposal as of yet.
The union further proposed that writers “may not be assigned AI-generated material to adapt, nor may AI software generate covered literary material.”
