"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"
A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.
You made some great points. For me, I think of copyright and protecting specific works, like entire books, articles, etc - not derivatives. But as you pointed out, that is not how it is applied. It is frequently abused to crush and stifle things that are clearly NOT copies.
I suppose I should say I am not opposed to the concept of copyright in very narrow conceptual terms, rather than current real-world applications.
