Just a little update from @paramountplus' quarterly earnings call today... 1/7
.@paramountplus just added 4.1 MILLION subscriptions to reach 60 MILLION global subscriptions. But they don't want to pay a penny more in residuals for that global subscriber growth 2/7
This is despite the fact that they know exactly how much writers' content supports that growth 3/7

The Board of Directors of the @WGAWest and the Council of the @WGAEast, acting upon the authority granted to them by their memberships, have voted unanimously to call a strike, effective 12:01 AM, Tuesday, May 2.
The decision was made following six weeks of negotiating with @netflix, @amazon, @Apple, @Disney, @wbd, @NBCUniversal, @paramountplus and @Sony under the umbrella of the AMPTP.
Though our Negotiating Committee began this process intent on making a fair deal, the studios’ responses have been wholly insufficient given the existential crisis writers are facing.

The WGA’s proposal to regulate use of material produced using artificial intelligence or similar technologies ensures the Companies can’t use AI to undermine writers’ working standards including compensation, residuals, separated rights and credits. #WGAStrong 🧵1/7
AI can’t be used as source material, to create MBA-covered writing or rewrite MBA-covered work, and AI-generated text cannot be considered in determining writing credits. 2/7
Our proposal is that writers may not be assigned AI-generated material to adapt, nor may AI software generate covered literary material. 3/7
