    LMAO imagine thinking you can fight this.

    If a robot is going to take your job, stop bitching to courts and either learn to use the tech to improve or find a new job.

    This shit is happening, you can’t put it back in the bottle, and you’ll just be replaced by someone living with less restrictive laws.

    Countries that join in this absurd protectionism will fall behind economically.

      The way a technology is regulated has a huge impact on society. Intellectual property is an artificial construct, completely created by regulations and has to be redefined for new technologies that interact with it. With AI, there are a lot of Questions regarding intellectual property that have to be answered, which will define who own and profits from it. Why shouldn’t creators try to lobby for favourable laws?

        Because the rest of the world exists. Can you name a single technology that massively boosted productivity but was regulated at a global scale successfully? Do you think a country with low goods export is going to hamper it’s competitive advantage because some highly paid (yes American writers are highly paid compared globally) Hollywood writer says this is bad?

        They have a term for this. Luddite.

          Internet has tons of regulation. Pretty much all of chemistry. Try to buy some radioactive material. Copyright when it came to printing books. You know international law and treaties exist? There is this whole thing called patents that regulates new technology. Obviously AI will be also heavily regulated - what are you smoking, my friend.
