SAG-AFTRA negotiators have approved a tentative agreement that will end the longest actors strike against the film and TV studios in Hollywood history.
In an announcement Wednesday, the union said the strike would officially end at 12:01 a.m. on Thursday.
The unions negotiating committee approved the deal on a unanimous vote. The agreement next goes to the SAG-AFTRA national board for approval on Friday.
The two sides spent the last several days putting the finishing touches on the deal, which will see the first-ever protections for actors against artificial intelligence and a historic pay increase. The deal will see most minimums increase by 7% two percent above the increases received by the Writers Guild of America and the Directors Guild of America.

So, did the AMPTP cave on the AI thing, or did SAG-AFTRA give up and just spell the end of acting as a career?

They should have kept going until they got everything they wanted like the writers.

Those will likely show up when/if it goes through at a national level, but looks like they got at least some protection from the gloss over on the article.
