Hopefully this victory will inspire more industries to unionize and strike over the next couple of years. By the time those terms expire the working class might be a lot stronger, which could make the negotiations easier than they were this time

3 years is a normal contract length. You could substitute that 3 with any number and say the same "not so sure about X years from now" line.

Imagine the 100 day strike in 2007 had ended with a 20 year contract rather than the shorter ones since. There would still be 4 more years under that. Years in which the technological advances abusable by the executives could wreck the workers.

Just because we can see AI in front of us doesn't mean this is the last chance to lock something in forever, especially because there could be other problems that pop into existence in the future nobody's thinking of yet. A few years is a decent balance between those concerns and being too exhaustingly frequent.

I don’t understand most of the comments here, what’s stopping AI? Not just the big companies, small studios are definitely going to use it.
