The statement indicates that AI remains a major sticking point in the ongoing negotiations.
“This morning our negotiators formally responded to the AMPTP’s ‘Last, Best & Final’ offer,” the statement reads. “Please know every member of our TV/Theatrical Negotiating Committee is determined to secure the right deal and thereby bring this strike to an end responsibly. There are several essential items on which we still do not have an agreement, including AI. We will keep you informed as events unfold.

SAG-AFTRA is reportedly looking to attach clauses requiring consent and compensation for the re-use of any and all AI scans. “This is one of the biggest reasons SAG did not accept the ‘last, best and final’ offer from the AMPTP. We could not allow that language to stand,” one SAG-AFTRA source told The Hollywood Reporter. “This is massive. Every A-, B-, C-, D- and E-lister — all the higher-paid performers — who think this is a minimum wage strike, they must know they are in this fight.
