The strike by video game performers is due to the breakdown in talks for a new contract with major game studios over artificial intelligence protections.
Sag-Aftra negotiators state that gains have been made over wages and job safety, but studios are resistant to regulation of generative AI.
Fran Drescher, Sag-Aftra's president, emphasized the members' refusal to approve a contract allowing AI exploitation by game companies, pushing for fair agreements.
Negotiating committee chair Sarah Elmaleh highlighted the studios' disregard for reasonable AI protections, focusing on exploitation instead of fairness in the negotiations.
