The Writers Guild of America strike lasted five months and resulted in a deal this fall that curtails the encroachment of artificial intelligence and increases pay. The contract also provides new staffing protections and health and pension improvements for more than 11,000 workers. The standoff that largely shut down Hollywood production broke new ground that could broadly influence labor and management interactions.
