    So now we get to see how AI holds up against the patent system, which doesn’t care who wrote what.

      I honestly see this copyright failure to kind of mark a massive decline in the US. Not that I loved the copyright system, but they protected patents and intellectual property like crazy and now they gave up.

      We’re the kind of country where I wouldn’t be surprised to see people selling bootleg movies and games on the street for a quick buck. It’s a symptom of a failing economy and bureaucracy that won’t regulate anything.

        I don’t think this is true, lawsuits just take a long time. And I wish this was true, at least for software patents. Those should NOT exist.
