If you want to know my personal political stance, I think every company with more than 50 or so employees should be owned by the state. I'm for the dismantling of the stock market and the owner caste. I'm also a realist and understand those things won't come to pass anytime soon. OpenAI will remain and they will happily eat all the fines if it guarantees them a monopoly.

I wasn't playing devil's advocate. My point is these legislation only help companies like OpenAI while bringing no benefit whatsoever to any of us.

There are also ways to hold giant megacorporations to a different set of standards than independent developers.

Yes but that isn't what is being currently proposed, is it?

You edited your comment after I responded. This is what you originally posted:

"That's a pretty good trick, trying to conflate regulation of OpenAI with other impossible ideals you claim to hold, and drawing a hard line between that and your own suggestion: to let OpenAI win.

I feel sorry for your clients.

(By the way, Grimy claims to be a copyright lawyer, but for some reason he only crawls out of the woodwork when OpenAI is discussed. Sam Altman himself seems like a less biased source for how AI should be treated.)"

I never claimed to be a copyright lawyer and there is literally no other copyright discussion except the ones pertaining to AI. I touched on my ideals because you were implying I was pro big business.

I always try to have a reasonable discussion with you but you always end up writing these kinds of comments while never adressing my actual arguments. Have a good day bro.
