OpenAI and other tech firms are already seizing upon <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/slate.com\/technology\/2025\/06\/ai-copyright-lawsuits-anthropic-meta-openai-google.html\">legal uncertainties and long-tied, slow-moving court cases<\/a> to declare any of their actions and business moves fair game; it helps they have friends in the Trump administration who loathe liberal Hollywood and are <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/slate.com\/technology\/2024\/12\/david-sacks-ai-crypto-czar-donald-trump-tech-hell.html\">sympathetic<\/a> to their A.I.-accelerationist arguments, whether for the sake of beating China or <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonpost.com\/technology\/2025\/09\/30\/ai-economy-investment-bubble\/\">propping up our fragile economy<\/a> or ensuring that the burn of <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.newcomer.co\/p\/openai-is-now-the-tech-economys-atlas\">billions upon billions upon billions of dollars<\/a> won\u2019t singe them too much.<\/p>\n<p class=\"slate-paragraph slate-graf\" data-word-count=\"76\" data-uri=\"slate.com\/_components\/slate-paragraph\/instances\/cmg89qdwc001u3b7aeyfyt44e@published\">The fact that Tilly Norwood and the company behind ChatGPT are simultaneously engendering such controversy is not a coincidence: This is an existential moment for human-created entertainment as we know it. If actors, talent bookers, and studio executives cannot hold the line now, at this very moment, the battle to preserve the humanity inherent to art will be irredeemably set back.
