I've been paying attention to this issue for several years. 2023 seems a bit of a turning point. The issue was relatively dormant before, but finally seems to be breaking through into public consciousness. Hollywood writers shape a lot of public opinion & narrative. When the strike finishes, it will be interesting to see how AI is portrayed in TVs & movies going forward. Presumably the writers will spend more time exploring concerns.
