hear hear, and good riddance too.

The only good thing to come out of AI.

How is this good? Copyleft licenses are also being ignored.

[moi2388]

Patents and copyright stifles innovation. Knowledge should be communal and free.

> Knowledge should be communal and free

I agree, which is why I license my work under copyleft licenses such as AGPLv3 so that anyone has to make their modifications public too.

I think LLMs (especially closed-source models) will make this worse.

[self_awareness]

Free and communal knowledge means you're easily replaceble by someone else.

I wonder what communal answer you have for someone who would say, "moi2388, your work will be now done by moi2389. Thanks and good bye."

[win311fwg]

The alternative is that you are not easily replaceable, which means that moi2389 is the one who doesn't get to do the work. Which is good for moi2388, perhaps, but what about moi2389? Either way someone is going to be left out in the cold.

[self_awareness]

moi2389 should research the market and create a new value, not replace someone else by providing the same value.

First off they can’t just fire me, I’m from a civilised country. Secondly, feel free to use whatever work I have done in the past, I still think you won’t be able to do my work in the future.

I have a lot of coworkers in civilized countries, they seem to get made redundant too. Sometimes they go on garden leave for a while first but the end result is the same.
