this agreement is causing a great deal of distaste in VA spaces this week, perhaps best exemplified by this tweet which asserts that the deal was not sent to membership. as far as i can tell through the grapevine a lot of VAs concur that this was foist upon them suddenly and they were given no chance to vote on it or similar, but it's hard to say without any more concrete details than social media

As I've been expecting all along, the competition is not going to be between humans and AIs. It'll be between humans that use AIs and those that don't, and the ones that don't will be at a big disadvantage. SAG-AFTRA saw the writing on the wall and wanted to keep its monopoly on what voices are "allowed."
