Yeah look I don’t care about the details. Copyright laws have been gradually expanded over the decades. I consider copyright law fundamentally unethical and a kind of theft, or artificial scarcity. Oppressive IP laws are basically the only universal laws in all countries, which is disgusting if you compare it to basic human rights. And patents right now in times of climate change are increasing the risk of genocide and our own extinction by slowing down innovation and adaptation by rising costs and red tape. I really don’t care about debating this, take it or leave it lol.
Just understand that with this, IP law has grown and AI models have become property that have to be licensed to be used. That means those with the most money will control the use and who benefits from them. In 10 or 20 years AI models will have become much better and replace a foundation of how our civilization works - survival in exchange for your labour.
Because with each improvement of AI and automation, a larger segment of the population won’t have the ability to develop skills to compete. They will be cut off from being able to earn money. This percentage of the population will increase until at one point, AI and robots will do all the work that 90% of the population will be able to do, just faster and cheaper and better. However far away that point is, we’ll move step by step towards that point.
Are we moving towards an Utopia or a Dystopia? Being able to build a robot that builds another robot that does work to help you survive, grow food, build housing etc could in a way democratize economy. But the principle that AI is owned by some few plutocrats based on some IP law because of whatever… that will keep. You’ll have to pay monthly for the privilege to use an open source AI model locally, forever. Technology won’t free us, but make us more and more subordinate to those who own the “IP”.
All this anti-AI propaganda about copyright and how AI “stole” some poor artists work - it is all for this. To make people fall for the trap that naturally, AI models are owned by those who own the data. The posts on social media, the books and media conglomerates, the science papers, the news articles. They own it all, and this only serves them, not us.
So I really don’t care about the legal ideas that were formed when the world looked completely different and have been distorted to become a kind of feudal ownership of our collective knowledge and future. Laws are simply an expression of who has power.
