Episode #21
AI Studios Drive A New Hollywood Pay Model: Film Equity, Not Just Checks For Creatives
Jul 29, 202621 minS3
This episode is a discussion of Peter Csathy's latest article in his "the brAIn" newsletter , which focuses on Hollywood’s long-standing compensation model for individual Creatives on film, television, and video projects. Each of those projects (like Christopher Nolan’s smash The Odyssey ) is in its own way a startup venture. Csathy's virtual co-hosts (generated by his article and prompts using Google NotebookLM) discuss whether generative AI’s rapid adoption in the entertainment business — led by AI studios and agencies — can rewrite Hollywood’s compensation model for Creatives. What if AI-transformed Hollywood borrows Silicon Valley’s startup playbook to give Creatives an actual slice of the economic pie for each individual project (like The Odyssey ) in exchange for lower fixed compensation? In such a re-imagined system, Hollywood Creatives aren’t just work-for-hire employees anymore. They’re actual stakeholders — invested in the overall success of the creative enterprise. In a sense, they're now on the film’s “cap table” (just like a tech startup employees’s equity stake shows up on the startup’s cap table).

The AI Royalty Marketplace: Key Updates on Content Licensing & Monetization (Digital Hollywood Session)
Jul 25, 202652 minS3
This episode features Peter Csathy's recent "AI Royalty Marketplace" exclusive Digital Hollywood session (recorded late July 2026). Peter is joined by an expert panel that features Adam Greenberg of The New York Times, Dave Davis of Protege, Emi Wayner (formerly Google AI), Luke Arrigoni of Loti, and Mickey Maher of Vermillio. The discussion focuses on the latest updates in the world of content licensing for all facets of AI use (training, outputs, RAG) - and for all forms of media (video, music, text) - and the different approaches used for each of them (and how those business models have evolved, and continue to evolve). Peter drills down deeply with each panelist to get exclusive "insider" information about actual pricing used and other key business and licensing terms not available anywhere else. It's a fascinating session that is remarkable in the level of critical perspectives, insights and information - for anyone in the overall AI entertainment/media ecosystem - which is essentially all of us.

It's an "Insider's" look of all the key business and legal issues, together with an "insider's" view of how the SAG negotiations transpired. All the key issues. All the latest updates (including on the 125+ global AI copyright litigations).

AI-Generated? Say So. Audiences Now Demand AI Labeling (So Do Streaming Services & Creators)
Jul 10, 202618 minS3
It used to be so simple to answer the question “who” made this music, image, video, advertising, or piece of art. Not anymore. Not in the world of generative AI. So it should be no surprise that the “AI labeling” moment has arrived. In this episode -- AI LABEL ALERT -- Google NotebookLM's synthetic co-hosts discuss Peter's upcoming article about the increasing expectation of consumers for AI transparency - and the cost to those creators and brands that choose to stay silent and opaque about their use of generative AI in their content and ads. It's a timely discussion since just today, The Wall Street Journal reported that a coalition of major music industry trade groups led by the RIAA — and backed by major Hollywood players SAG-AFTRA and the Human Artistry Campaign — are pushing Spotify and Apple Music to adopt a dual-tag AI labeling system. They’re demanding a black “AI” tile for music tracks generated entirely by AI — and a lowercase “ai” tile for tracks that merely lean into AI. Two AI labeling tags. One goal. Let the listener decide!

A24 Is Now AI-24: What Google's $75 Million Deal with the Auteur Studio Means
Jun 23, 202614 minS3
This episode discusses host Peter Csathy's upcoming article about the breaking news that Google's DeepMind just invested $75 million into powerhouse taste-making, auteur-driven, boutique studio A24. Yes, A24 — the darling of film hipsters everywhere — just jumped the AI shark. The studio behind breakout hit Backrooms and Academy Award-winning Everything Everywhere All at Once just shook hands with the biggest of Big Tech bros, Google. The mandate? To develop custom AI tools for A24 filmmakers. A24's talking points about the deal focus on non-threatening storyboarding AI use cases. But make no mistake. Storyboarding is just the Trojan Horse for AI going mainstream into the full pre-production, production, and post-production workflow -- every step of the way. Csathy's virtual co-hosts discuss it all here -- including what this deal means to the overall Hollywood creative community. Csathy listened to - and approves - the episode's contents and vouches for the insights.
