Oh so all these AI companies get to steal whatever they want but in order to stop the 99% from stealing we need to lock down the internet?

Remember: you can do almost anything in America so long as a retirement fund gets to wet its beak.

Murder-for-hire? That's not only a first-degree murder charge, it's RICO. You're looking at the gurney in Terre Haute as a real possibility.

Operating a company that takes money from people on the promise that they'll be able to use it to cover medical expenses, then denying the payout because you already promised that money to shareholders who want to move to Florida to swing on and off the golf course at the retirement community they like, all while letting the person die a miserable death from a treatable illness? Perfectly legal. Encouraged. You have Congress' ear.

Same here.

Reading a book that no one wants to sell without paying for it? Intellectual property theft. Having a LLM model do the same and then charging for access to said model's output? Here's a seat behind the President at the inauguration.

That's just silly. There is no moral comparison between the two. I wouldn't bother to respond, except that it's this sort of attitude that was behind the gleeful response and support of a cold blooded murder.

		Yes, there is. The corporation is worse even because they do it on a mass scale. The response to that UHC ceo is entirely his and the corporation’s fault. Actions have consequences.

		"That's just silly." ... how? I can point at myriad examples in which someone's life was ended because expending the monetary resources necessary to extend it was not in the best interests of shareholder returns.

That’s necessary because US&A needs to beat China!
