This week I'm being informed that property ownership is over, so you'll surely forgive my cynicism.
If AI can be used to launder any IP into the public domain by passing it through a legalized-government-theivery corp, what's the point in working to create anything?
Nationalization assumes AGI creates a monopoly worth seizing. But if multiple labs converge simultaneously and price it toward marginal cost, there's nothing to nationalize. The question is whether governments coordinate before commoditization makes the whole debate moot. History suggests they don't: https://philippdubach.com/posts/is-ai-really-eating-the-worl...
Normally we'd just put the site into a spam filter, but in this case I'd rather assume that you want to use HN as intended and are not just treating this place as a vehicle for promotion, which is against the rules (https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html).
Appreciate you flagging this directly rather than just filtering.
Spamming is the exact opposite of my intentions. After Tom told me I shouldn't post links to my site anymore because long-time users complained about it making the front page three times in a month, I really cut back on posting and tried to only comment on topics where I felt I had something of value to add. If you look at my profile, plenty of my comments have no links at all or link to other sources, and based on feedback like today (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47265869), I thought I'd found the right balance.
