> Meanwhile we techies are lulling around like we didn’t deeply just experience the last 10 years and thinking it’ll be different this time because.. AI is rooted in academia? Flashy new companies? The safety rhetoric? Edgy Twitter takes from “down-to-earth” founders?
These companies have already stolen everyone's data and techies are bitching about IP law and saying they don't need to ask permission to use anything on the public internet. That might be the legal reality but you still look like tech douchebag for doing it.
