Online games could be first to be hit by the video game acting strike if the dispute is not resolved quickly.
That’s according to a union boss.
The BBC is reporting that performers in the industry walked out on July 26 after a failure to reach an agreement over the use of generative artificial intelligence, Gen AI, in development.
Members of union SAG-Aftra, which represents about 2,500 performers, recently staged a picket outside the offices of Warner Bros, one of 10 game companies negotiating with the union.
They say their offer gives workers “meaningful protections” but SAG-Aftra disagrees.
