Lilly Wachowski tweeted her reasons for voting against the union contract that the Directors Guild of America was about to sign with Hollywood studios in June. The AI provision in the contract, which states that generative AI cannot be regarded as a “person” or carry out tasks that are typically performed by DGA members, was insufficient. “We must modify the wording to suggest that we will not employ AI in any department or on any project we work on,” Wachowski penned. “I firmly believe that the battle our industry is currently engaged in is a microcosm of a much larger and critical crisis.”
