I was sarcastic. Maybe I'm being a bit unfair today.
But while fuckai is busy beating the drum for intellectual property expansion, a non-capitalist state like China has regulated their AI preventing workers being replaced by AI or regulating emotionally addictive companion bots. Meanwhile I have not heard a single actionable demand for regulation from fuckai.
So there is a problem with capitalists abusing AI. There is no problem fundamentally with LLMs themselves, they are just tools. They could be amazing to help with economic planning because it could allow to parse democratic input from millions of people.
IP laws are very much a tool of imperialist oppression. Patents are outright genocide, preventing rapid adoption of new technologies to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. And ultimately the IP argument will lead to open weight models becoming "illegal", monopolizing the "means of generation" and advanced robotics in the hands of the plutocrats. That is going to be "it" for the future of humanity then. They are going to pay a pittance in "general license costs", replace more and more labor, while you can try to pirate an open source model to use this emergent technological power yourself.
