Intellectual property warriors wield intellectual property laws like a club, but the club is made of thin air. What AI companies are doing is not illegal according to those laws.
What you want is to change those laws to be more oppressive, but no country will do that. They’re all pro-AI. You’d need a revolution, but I’ve never heard of a “status quo defender revolution”.
(Imagine a status quo revolution: radlibs running around with signs saying “More oppression”, “We hate progress”, “More power to the current ruling class”, “Make not voting blue illegal”)






The problem is, the copyright advocates already dehumanize the people behind the machines by default, equating them to the machines, so when they use a slur against “machines” they target the people utilizing the machines, not the actual machines.
Using “acceptable slurs” and dehumanizing is the default modus operandi of radlibs.
