I think this is a VERY bad time for TV/movie writers to be going on strike. TV just brings out more reality shows and event shows that don’t require writers.
Besides that, AI is getting to the point where it will be able to rewrite old scripts from classics with a new set of characters as well as the hacks can.
When the band musicians went on strike in 1942, crooners took over and the Big Band era’s completion was hastened. It was as disastrous strike as anything this side of the Air Traffic Controllers.

There is a need to develop AI-generated scripts with a conservative skew.
Can’t be that hard.
Who needs new movies? So much old stuff I still haven't seen, or not in a while.
I saw a pretty good Spanish-Italian zombie movie today, Let Sleeping Corpses Lie (1974). Yesterday I saw a British black comedy, The Killing of Sister George (1968). Both for the first time. Both on YouTube.
The day before that, 1980's Stardust Memories on Tubi. It's been decades since I last saw that one.
I never watch new stuff.
