America Has Lost 200k of Jobs in Media, Film and the Arts. How Much Is AI?

Automated excerpt

America has lost more than 200k jobs in “creative” industries over the last four years, with roughly 50k lost within the last year alone. The effects of AI are also hard to disentangle from other factors currently affecting arts businesses, like consolidation in Hollywood, offshoring of content production, or the continued displacement of traditional media providers in favor of social media creators. Overall, nearly half the media job losses of the last four years have been concentrated in the movie & sound recording sector that includes Hollywood.
