motherfuckers, we have to pay for DRINKING WATER. but the AI bros don’t think they have to pay for intellectual property to build fancy shit-machines no one wants.
@stephenstroud.bsky.socialTheir logic seems to be that copyrighted content is an essential input for AI, for which they should escape paying because AI is essential for our futures. But if they are right should we not simply expropriate the benefits of AI without paying for it?
