AI & the Guilds: What's Next?
About this program
Here we go again! The reverberations of 2023’s dual strikes continue, yet a new negotiation cycle is already underway, with key DGA, WGA, and SAG-AFTRA agreements expiring in mid-2026. Unions and management are already sizing up the AI issues that will once again be front and center—along with sizing up each other in advance of…productive talks? nail-biters? something worse? Meanwhile, technology races ahead (hello, Tilly Norwood! howdy, Sora 2!), industry landscapes shift like tectonic plates, and the law—as usual—struggles to keep up. With the future of entertainment hanging in the balance, this webinar takes an essential look at where we are now and what may lie ahead as the next round of guild negotiations approaches.
This OnDemand CLE program earns 1 hour of General credit in California. It aired December 5, 2025 and features Jonathan Handel and David Shraga.
