@jaredwhite ... United Artists was formed to combat the big studios of the time for these very same reasons, but over time, it was gobbled up and turned into yet another studio conglomerate. The same thing could be created again with an eye on modern issues beyond just base pay, but maybe that wouldn't be enough.

AI may need to be employed and controlled by the individual who's job it directly impacts, and kept out of corporate hands to curb its abuse towards employees and/or contractors.
