AI fear is going to be the trojan horse for even harsher and stupider 'intellectual property' laws.
Yeah, they want the right only to protect who copies their work and distributes it to other people, but who's able to actually read and learn from their work.
It's asinine and we should be rolling back copy right, not making it more strict. This 70 year plus the life of the author thing is bullshit.
Copyright of code/research is one of the biggest scams in the world. It hinders development and only exists so the creator can make money, plus it locks knowledge behind a paywall
It's generally not the creator who gets the money.
