Ok. Fine. I'll bite.

My original comment was about protecting intellectual property from theft, you responded with some bullshit about landlords charging too much rent which has nothing to do with intellectual theft. That is a textbook definition of moving the goal post.

Then you made assumptions about what I may or may not believe or think.

And now in this most recent comment you are asserting something that I did not say. I'm not arguing for or against the disparity in wealth.

Are you going to address my question? How do you propose that people who create intellectual property be compensated for their property? How do you propose you protect these people from intellectual theft? Please refrain from responding with anything other than the answer to this question I want you to propose a mechanism that will protect people from intellectual theft.

ONCE AGAIN THIS IS ABOUT INTELLECTUAL THEFT.

Also stop using the term cognitive dissonance you clearly have no clue what it means.

I can't believe I just had to provide you with a definition of the word copy.

Are you freaking serious!!!

Being inspired by and creating an original production is not the same as copying if that original work is inspired by other artists!!!

By your definition of copying because Elvis Presley was inspired by Muddy Waters they made the exact same music!

LLMs don't produce copyrighted material they take inspiration from the training data so to speak. They create original productions.

In the same way that you can envision the Mona Lisa in your head but you couldn't paint it by hand.

Lol wut?

You know copying literal brushstrokes and traces identifiable from real artists is different than being inspired, it's amazing the level of denial you cultists will self induce to keep it making sense.

Your god is not valuable enough to give more rights than human beings. Sorry

I don't care what techbro conmen told you.

AI will never be a replacement for actual creativity, and is already being legislated against properly in civilized countries.

The greatest enemy of knowledge is not ignorance, it is the illusion of knowledge. - Stephen Hawking

The fact that you keep calling llm's AI simply indicate your ignorance as to what you're even talking about.

They're not copying brush Strokes they're creating their own.

You have no idea how these things work what they are or even what they do you're just on the bandwagon hating these tools for reasons that you don't even understand yourself.

If you're so upset with all this stuff go live in a Luddite community or something.

Because they have the money to advertise all of the better financed projects they would be allowed to steal.

How are they going to make money off of these projects if people can legally copy and redistribute them for free?

You're completely wrong about your assumption, but advertising should be illegal too.

Wanting copywright to be gone means you intend to steal from others

"Wahhhh, he stole my idea!"

You mean copy, not steal. When something is stolen from you, you no longer have it.

How are they going to make money off of these projects if people can legally copy and redistribute them for free?

The same reasons everyone doesn't already do this via pirating.

Wow you are just a troll, thanks for showing me so I don't waste anymore time with you.
