Justine Bateman Says Actors Should Only Approve SAG Deal 'If They Don't Want to Work Anymore'
www.thewrap.com: Justine Bateman is deeply disappointed with the tentative agreement in place between SAG-AFTRA and the major studios, which ended the strike. While speaking with MSNBC’s Ali Velshi, she explained that members of the union should approve the deal after voting begins Tuesday only “if they don’t want to work anymore.”

I think that Bateman is a bit idealistic. If she got her way all she would be doing is prolonging the inevitable. AI isn’t going anywhere. Companies trying to look for cheap ways to do work aren’t going anywhere. To take the stance of no AI at all period is only harming people in the future because she’s choosing not to have her voice heard in a more productive debate on how to use AI as a tool. AI will be a tool used for the foreseeable future and it is in everyone’s best interest to regulate it instead of ban it. There is no longer a world that can exist without AI, it is part of our life now. She should accept and understand that and put her knowledge and hard work into figuring out how to live with AI instead of trying to push it away. It’s something that I see a lot in the world, not just from Bateman. The minute AI started getting big back in 2019 I began trying to figure out how it worked. OpenAI, the creators of ChatGPT used to be open source (hence the name) and I would read through portions of their code and all their creators notes on the code and figure out how exactly it was made. That way I can understand how it works and how to best use it. I will never try to shame new technology because that’s not productive. Instead I like to see how I can use AI to help me. I attended a lecture on how to effectively prompt AI and I use it now (while fact checking of course). I will ask chatGPT to explain to me historical time periods I don’t know much about or mathematical concepts I don’t understand just so that I can get a basic understanding before I dig deeper. I think that is fine and is in fact a good tool.
