That's why copyright violation should be brutally cracked down on when the copyrights of Microsoft are violated, and lawsuits against Microsoft for intentional and widespread copyright violation should be laughed off. Because capitalism is bad.

edit: corporate LLMs have pulled the "one death is a tragedy, ten thousand deaths are a statistic" ploy off fully. If you want people to question whether you're even violating copyright, make sure you violate all of them at the same time. They'll just decide that you're an act of god and not covered under earthly laws.

I don't think this is relevant. If OpenAI had trained a model on just one copyrighter holder's content it would likely not be different legally, even if the model would perform much worse.

Primacy of capital is literally the culprit of the inequality you're complaining about, and the reason you cannot win short of reorganizing society.

It seems people prefer power distributed by capital, rather than military might or factionalism/leaders/politics.

Not that all capital is distributed by merit, plenty of people used military might or factionalism/leaders/politics to obtain disproportionate amount of capital.

But if you are against the last 2 happening, I don't see what you expect a reorganization of society to accomplish since you are going to get a power structure of factionalism/leaders/politics taking priority. (Sorry bud, no an-com utopia ever existed, they all had factionalism/leaders/politics, thus defeating the entire purpose of removing class.)

I think most of us think we can capture/retain power easier with money, than having to climb up inter-party politics.

Capital primacy is maintained by the capitalist state, i.e. the monopoly on violence. This is literally military might.

I don't necessarily disagree with your later points. I do, however, disagree with giving up.

At least its equitable (based on value of output), ofc there are legacy issues as well.

Some demagogue can swoon the masses and take it all if not for capital. That demagogue could be Trump or Stalin.

Know the consequences of what you are advocating for.

It's not. By definition, it's based on control of capital. That's why it's called capitalism. In other words, those aren't "legacy" issues; they are literally the system as designed.

[hospitalJail]

That is too simple, people can earn their own capital as well.

Since utopia is impossible, its a choice between:

>Capitalism, where people can typically pull off the american dream in their lifetime.

or

>Let politics determine how much material things you get

The latter seems especially scary if you are familiar with history
