Hmmm I am not sure the title matches the content of the article. As far as I can tell the WGA is quite open to writers using AI as a helpful writing Tool. What they are trying to limit is studios using AI as a tool to screw over writers.
For example, a studio could use an AI system to generate a short story and then ask the writer to adapt that, which significantly impacts the credits and renumeration the writer would receive for doing the entire writing process.
