Adam Driver Criticizes Netflix and Amazon , Amid Ongoing Hollywood Strike.
Driver, who stars in 'Ferrari,' made his
comments during a press conference at the
Venice Film Festival on Aug.
30, CNN reports.
.
Why is it that a smaller distribution company like Neon and STX International (distributors for 'Ferrari') can meet the dream demands of what SAG is asking for – this is pre-negotiations – the dream version of SAG’s wish list, but a
big company like Netflix and Amazon can’t, Adam Driver, via statement.
Driver is one of the few actors attending the film festival under "interim agreement waivers with SAG-AFTRA for independent projects," CNN reports.
.
Otherwise, guild members are prohibited from promoting projects that are affiliated with the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers (AMPTP), per strike guidelines.
.
Every time people from SAG go and support a movie that has agreed to these terms – the interim agreement – it just makes it more obvious that these people are willing to support the people that they collaborate
with, and the others are not, Adam Driver, via statement.
I’m very happy to be here to support this movie.
I'm very proud to be here to be a visual representation of a movie that’s not part of the AMPTP and to promote the SAG leadership directive, which is an effective tactic –
which is the interim agreement, Adam Driver, via statement.
Francis Ford Coppola has released the first teaser trailer to his epic, self-funded passion project 'Megalopolis.' The film, which will premiere at the Cannes Film Festival on May 17, is a Roman epic set in an imagined modern America. Led by Adam Driver, the film's sprawling cast also includes Aubrey Plaza, Shia LaBeouf, Jon Voight, Jason Schwartzman, Laurence Fishburne and Dustin Hoffman among others.

According to a report by The Institute for Public Policy
Research (IPPR), younger workers, women and lower-
wage workers stand to lose the most to AI automation.
The IPPR's report found that entry-level, part-time
and administrative jobs face the highest risk of
being replaced by AI in a "worst-case scenario.".
Over the next three to five years, the thinktank
warns that more companies will use generative AI
technology to automate everyday workplace tasks.
The IPPR found that 11% of tasks currently
done by workers are at risk.
This includes database management, scheduling and
stocktaking, which could displace entry-level workers in the
secretarial, administrative and customer service sectors.
This includes database management, scheduling and
stocktaking, which could displace entry-level workers in the
secretarial, administrative and customer service sectors.
The IPPR warns that the number
could increase to 59% of tasks in a
second wave if AI technology is developed
to handle more and more complex tasks. .
The second wave could impact higher-earning jobs
that involve less routine tasks surrounding database
creation, copywriting and graphic design. .
The IPPR warns that women , "are more likely to work in the most
exposed occupations, such as secretarial
and administrative occupations.".
According to the report, the worst-case
scenario for the second wave of AI could impact
7.9 million jobs, which would negate productivity
gains with zero growth in GDP for up to five years.
