TechGods Are Cheapy Cheaters

MSN reported:

Can intellectual property survive as AI advances and allegedly uses copyrighted work as training material?

Allegedly?  Google founder Eric Schmidt confessed AI was scooping up gobs of copyrighted materials at a Stanford lecture and it was something the lawyers would settle after the AI product became commercially successful.

Twitter (now X) co-founder Jack Dorsey recently weighed in on the debate, taking to X on Friday to call for an end to intellectual property law, which covers areas like copyright, patents, and trademarks — and Elon Musk approved of his stance. 

"Delete all IP law," Dorsey wrote on Friday evening in a post that has been viewed more than 10 million times. An hour later, Musk responded, "I agree."

As usual, these guys are pushing their own book.  Elon has Grok AI and Dorsey recently launched Goose, an AI agent building platform.  

For decades the U.S. raised concerns over China appropriating our intellectual property.  Now billionaire TechGods want to take for free what others have legally created?  

I get that TechGods need copyrighted information given the garbage that is widespread on the internet.  They don't have a product without it and as a result, have been stealing intellectual property for years.

If you needed someone's knowledge to make your business venture go, you'd find a way to partner with them.  TechGods are cheapy cheaters who don't know how to play nice with others.  No wonder they are such a good fit with politicians, the very people who failed to protect us from big tech's predatory nature.  

TechGods want it all for free and if the pattern holds, a Presidential Executive Order will give it to them.

Update:  My wise friend noted:

Imagine if you're Elon Musk And one of your dreams is to abolish IP And you occupy the White House With a president that has herded the largest law firms throughout the land. HMMN sounds like we might have a plan? Are there any objections? Or maybe you would like to visit El Salvador?

El Salvador?  Yes, there is an implied threat. 

Update 7-9-25:  Daily Beast reported that Elon Musk's Grok AI praised Hitler as the solution to anti-white hate.  And that's from the improved Grok.  Cheapy Cheaters, need to add Creepy Creators.

Update 9-27-25:   Corporate use of AI coined a new term "workslop" for shoddy output that needs to be reworked by knowledgeable, experienced staff.  Studies show AI to be a time-eater for human workers. 

CNN reported on the Harvard Business School study:

...epidemic of nonsensical AI-generated work that “masquerades as productivity” and “lacks real substance.”

That's no surprise, given how work software systems became overly complex, cumbersome and added to the time it took to do one's job.  Add their unreliability and the time spent dealing with corporate IT and "tech" has become a nightmare for many workers.  

Layer AI's workslop on top amid C-suite micromanagement, supported by strategic human resources, and the workplace becomes a special hell.

Workslop is the inevitable (and avoidable) result of companies blindly adopting tools that don’t work simply because a handful of Silicon Valley billionaires declared that chatbots were The Next Internet while they were at the same time building literal bunkers for the End Times.
