No way could this clusterfuck of IP (owning thoughts), the worry of AI "taking jobs" (e.g doing work that would otherwise be done by humans), and selling of the work on a marketplace at all be tied to the idea of capitalism.
In other economic systems, having work automated would be a good thing, not an existential threat to the functioning of our entire global economy. I'm blown away that people don't understand that.
Any system with a "work or die" mentality is indeed not long for this world.
