Pretty sure the value of the CC licenses isn't that they invented any particular set of restrictions and freedoms, but that they applied enough lawyer energy so that the wording of those sets would be compatible with law systems.

Do you have examples of human-created "new things" that aren't essentially novel combinations of old things? Because I come up blank. And this current crop of AI generators are very good at combining old things in novel ways.

I'd agree that attempts at such gestures are a calculated risk, and when they backfire the result is worse than doing nothing. But I expect it's at least possible to sell it hard enough that you win over most of the people most of

Important aspect of this model is that sense of taste is not static. Two things: As skill is improved, taste may also improve at the same rate. When your taste gap doesn't close, it can seem like you're not actually improving. Con
