I don't think "AI" is meaningfully opposed to copyright, they want to collect rent for this horseshit.

they're only opposed to traditional copyright insofar as it could make future profits difficult. in the "bribe the judges" era we live in I'm sure disney could re-copyright steamboat willie if they wanted

    But that means Disney comes into direct conflict with AI, right?

    of course not. law binds us but does not protect us.

    there is no law for the oligarchs and we need to stop thinking we are bound by those laws anyway.

    You don't think that these companies will have some fight about Thai subject ? That Disney and AI companies will not fight each other for the profits associated with this copyright? And whatever is established there is more important for society and our strategic goals than our own small claims
