That's why the AMPTP finally agreed to staff writers getting a script fee. Because in their future, staff writers no longer exist.
Right now, TV writers make up the bulk of the Guild. In the companiesโ ideal world, a TV show is written by one machine and one writer...
Because the financial overlords want to eliminate TV rooms altogether. Showrunners shared stories of tech execs pitching them AI as a good thing because it will reduce โgrunt workโ and make things more โefficientโ. We already know the scourge of mini-rooms. But the capper?
Minimum staff size. I keep getting asked about it. I myself didnโt entirely understand until the Showrunner Meeting. Even then, it took three people asking the same question until the pieces locked together for many of us.

Go after Russia's biggest banks.
Go after Russia's biggest oligarchs.
Go after Russia's ability to use financial markets.
Cut them off from doing business with the West until they end this bloody war.
And we need to do it now.
