The Writers Guild of America East has struck a partnership with the AI shielding tool Cloak, a service that aims to help writers safeguard their work from training AI models.

The partnership will provide WGAE members with free access to Cloak, while non-WGAE members can pay $10 for Cloak once they register their script with the guild. Cloak’s software makes a script resistant to scraping by most AI models while preserving its formatting, making it harder for those models to train on writers’ work.
