He argues that reviving lost federal tax credits and the fin-syn rule could reignite that era’s vitality, while pushing streamers to prioritize indie creators and limit their control. Joining him on a panel with Don Passman and Linda Lichter, he reflects on how deals that once took minutes now stretch for months, and how AI’s first phase—focused on cost-cutting—is sparking union fears, even as it opens doors for independents. Ziffren sees human creativity as ultimately unstoppable, calling for federal AI legislation and global cooperation to navigate the legal and ethical minefield. He ends with a hopeful vision: more diversity, less machine-driven content, and smart leadership to keep Hollywood thriving. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
