148天后，美国编剧工会领导人一致投票解除罢工，允许作家于9月27日星期三复工。
“WGAW董事会和WGAE委员会也一致投票决定解除限制令，并于9月27日星期三太平洋时间上午12:01/美国东部时间上午3:01结束罢工。这允许作者在批准过程中返回工作岗位，但不影响成员对合同批准做出最终决定的权利宣布的星期二。
代表近11，500名编剧的WGA发布了整个七页协议.
自最终确定协议备忘录(MOA)以来，WGA能够分享“特殊交易的细节，该交易为每个行业的成员带来了收益和保护。”
这份为期三年的协议称，“合同批准后，最低限额将增加5%，2024年5月2日增加4%，2025年5月2日增加3.5%。”
该试验性合同为在最低基本协议(MBA)覆盖的项目中使用人工智能制定了规定。即禁止一家公司使用“作家的材料来训练人工智能。"
该协议规定，人工智能生成的材料“不会被视为源材料”，人工智能不能编写或重写文学材料。
根据该协议，作家如果愿意，可以使用人工智能，但他们工作的公司不能要求他们这样做。
该协议还规定了“基于收视率的流媒体奖金”，当连续剧和电影在发布的前90天内被20%的订户观看时，可以获得相当于固定国内外剩余的50%的奖金。
只有得到工会成员的大多数支持，合同才会生效。如果成员投票否决合同，双方将不得不回到谈判桌上。
从周一到10月9日，合格选民将能够投票，投票开始时，他们将收到选票和批准材料。
这次罢工距离超过作家协会历史上最长的罢工不到一周，那次罢工发生在1988年，持续了154天。
在WGA与电影公司达成初步协议后，洛杉矶市长卡伦·巴斯周一发表了一份声明。巴斯说:“经过近五个月的罢工，我很感激美国编剧工会和电影电视制片人联盟达成了公平的协议，我希望同样的事情也能很快发生在美国演员工会身上。”。
7月，一个代表近160，000名演员的工会加入了抗议队伍寻求新合同他们自己的，有效地停止了好莱坞的活动。
WGA strike to end Wednesday, members authorized to return to work
After 148 days, leaders of the Writers Guild of America have unanimously voted to lift its strike, allowing writers to return to work Wednesday, Sept. 27.
"The WGAW Board and WGAE Council also voted unanimously to lift the restraining order and end the strike as of 12:01 am PT/3:01 am ET on Wednesday, September 27th. This allows writers to return to work during the ratification process, but does not affect the membership's right to make a final determination on contract approval," The unionannouncedon Tuesday.
The WGA, which represents nearly 11,500 screenwriters, released the entireseven-page agreement.
Since finalizing the Memorandum of Agreement (MOA), WGA was able to share details of the "exceptional deal, with gains and protections for members in every sector of the business."
The three-year deal stated "minimums will increase by 5% on ratification of the contract, 4% on May 2, 2024, and 3.5% on May 2, 2025."
The tentative contract established regulations for the use of Artificial Intelligence in Minimum Basic Agreement (MBA)-covered projects. Namely, prohibiting a company from using "writers' material to train AI."
The agreement states AI-generated material "will not be considered source material" and AI can't write or rewrite literary material.
Writers are allowed to use AI if they wish, but cannot be required by the company they're working for, according to the agreement.
The agreement also laid out "viewership-based streaming bonus," when series and films are viewed by 20% of subscribers in the first 90 days of release, get a bonus equal to 50% of the fixed domestic and foreign residual.
The contract will only take effect if it gains majority support from the union members. If the members vote to reject the contract, the two sides will have to return to the bargaining table.
Eligible voters will be able to vote beginning Monday through Oct. 9, and will receive ballot and ratification materials when the vote opens.
The strike was less than a week away from surpassing the longest strike in Writers Guild history, which occurred in 1988 and lasted 154 days.
Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass issued a statement Monday, following WGA reaching a tentative deal with the studios. "After a nearly five-month long strike, I am grateful that the Writers Guild of America and the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers have reached a fair agreement and I'm hopeful that the same can happen soon with the Screen Actors Guild," Bass said.
In July, a union representing nearly 160,000 actors joined the picket lines as they beganseeking a new contractof their own, effectively bringing activity in Hollywood to a halt.
