You don't think authors should get paid?
I don't think anyone should get paid.
Ok, let’s start with you then.
That's ideologically cool and all, but in today's reality megacorps will be getting paid for the labor of others which get nothing in return and will further accelerate the divide of wealth.
Yeah, nah.
We need to weaken these copyright and ownership notions one fight at a time.
You won’t get to tomorrow if you settle for today.
Copyright protection helps "the little guy" make a living to begin with
And it helps the big guy own everything our culture has produced.
We’re not even entitled to use the culture of our age freely because it’s all held by a handful of companies.
So you hate the "Big Guy" but you also hate independent workers like Sarah for wanting to protect their IP? You're making no sense here and just contradicting yourself between posts
It’s pretty simple, I hate IP in any form.
Oh so settling for giant corporations using AI to plagiarize other's work without liability is getting us to a better tomorrow? Interesting
Accepting that we don’t own words or concepts is.
Oh sure I bet the corporations will get right on giving up their ip so that they're on the same page as the rest of us.
They will never give up anything, we’ll have to take it back.
