“This ‘groundbreaking’ AI proposal that they gave us yesterday, they proposed that our background performers should be able to be scanned, get one day’s pay, and their companies should own that scan, their image, their likeness and should be able to use it for the rest of eternity on any project they want, with no consent and no compensation. So if you think that’s a groundbreaking proposal, I suggest you think again.”
Well you can be sure of that, but it would be a lie. Days on set can be 20 hours. And then you have to come back and do another 20 hour day the next day. And you get paid very little for doing it unless you’re on a big budget film, which I never was.
Might want to see how people live in Burundi before you call it a lie.
And keep in mind, you’re only subjected to this conditions so people richer than you can be even richer at your expense. (Long hours, low wages, high rent)
This is what I mean by passing a bunch of money around at the top. It doesn’t even matter if you make more money because it’s just going to end up in the hands of landlords and investors. All of does is drive up inflation, making it so the truly poor people never benefit from our excess.
Right, so if I want to complain, I have to be a dirt farmer in Burundi. Otherwise my life is too luxurious.
No. I suggest you re-read what I said.
I am literally saying the opposite of that when I say “I’m not in the all or nothing camp.”
Edit: You got 8 upvotes for being wrong, lol. People are really upset when rhetoric goes against the status-quo.
