What makes this whole thing even weirder for me is the similar fact that any output from AI might not enjoy copyright protections. So basically if you can steal software made with AI you can freely resell it.
- martin-t 10mo agoDuring the gold rush, it is said, the only people who made money were the ones selling the pickaxes. A"I" companies are ~selling~ renting the pickaxes of today. (I didn't come up with this quote but I can't find the source now. If anything good comes out of LLMs, it's making me appreciate other people's more and trying to give credit where it's due.)
- kapsi 10mo agoWhat about the people who sold gold? Didn't they make money?
- martin-t 10mo agoTo be honest, I haven't looked at any statistics but I imagine a tiny few of those looking for gold found any and got rich, the most either didn't find anything, died of illness or exposure or got robbed. I just like the quote as a comparison. Updated the original comment to reflect I haven't checked if it's correct.
