Digging the grave of my job: Hollywood creatives training AI to do their jobs

Hollywood creatives facing a 35% production slump are taking lucrative gig work training AI systems to replicate their skills—a trend some describe as "digging the grave of my profession." Award-winning writers, directors, and producers are being paid $12 to $200 per hour by AI training agencies to teach models how to write screenplays, create production schedules, and perform other entertainment industry tasks. The work highlights a growing concern that AI is increasingly displacing creative professionals as studios like Netflix expand AI usage and production jobs continue to decline.
