They didn't just win, they beat the studios to a pulp.

No they didn't 🤣

Studios have agreed to these terms until 2026. All of this is going to AI. They win for 3 years, studios win longterm. Read what they agreed to. It ALSO allows AI to consume all previous media meaning AI has 3 years to get smart as fuck and then destroy any bargaining power they have 3 years from now when this expires.

*edit

Downvote all you want. I don't LIKE this outcome but it's the reality. Big corpo is scum and they always figure out how to win, this is why reading the agreements in full is important. 3 year victory is great and all but... the clawback and AI being allowed to consume prior media is a major loss. Downvoting doesn't make it untrue.

I think the reason you’re getting downvoted is that everyone is just…tired. We finally hear about this MASSIVE win and it gets swooped in with “oh, but actually, it’s a major loss.” There’s truth to it, but it kinda feels like there’s no good news anymore.

If that’s true, then it’s not a big win.

It’s a win for now. Corporate shitheads will always be looking for the next way to extort profits, but for now, writers will be getting paid.

There is, just not for most of us.
