So your logic is that if you haven't personally seen/experienced something then it might not be real. There are countless countries you've never visited, countless people you've never met, and countless things you never learned. You're wasting your own time and everyone elses talking about the shit you don't know.
Also, if you're stupid enough to think school shootings in America are "fake" then you have a severe learning disability.
It's cute that you think you can reform copyright to suit your needs. Billion dollar corporations like Disney have more money than you and everyone you know. They will make the law whatever the fuck they want it to be.
Copyright laws exist to protect the entrenched interests of the rich. It should be abolished, but the useful idiots and the rich would never allow it.
Stealing is wrong. 200 billion dollar corporations like Disney worked very hard to change copyright laws. We need to respect these billion dollar corporations creating rules solely to benefit themselves.
Many of their points are factually incorrect. The first point I refuted is a strawman argument. They created a position I do not hold to make it easier to attack.
Dissecting his wall of text would take longer than I'd like, but I would be happy to provide a few examples:
I have "...corporate-apologist principles".
--- Though wolfram claims to have read my post history, he seems to have completely missed my many posts hating on TSLA, robber barons, Reddit execs, etc. I completely agree with him that AI will be used for evil by corporate assholes, but I also believe it will be used for good (just like any other technology).
"...tools are distinctly NOT inherently neutral. Consider the automatic rifle or the nuclear bomb"
"HOWEVER, BOTH the automatic rifle and the nuclear bomb are tools, and tools have a specific purpose"
--- Tools are neutral. They have more than one purpose. A nuclear bomb could be used to warm the atmosphere another planet to make it habitable. Not to mention any weapon can be used to defend humanity, or to attack it. Tools might be designed with a specific purpose in mind, but they can always be used for multiple purposes.
There are a ton of invalid assumptions about machine learning as well, but I'm not interested in wasting time on someone who believes they know everything.
You've made many incorrect assumptions and setup several strawmen fallacies. Rather than try to converse with someone who is only looking to feed their confirmation bias, I'll suggest you continue your learnings by looking up the Dunning Kruger effect.
Every technology is a tool - both safe and unsafe depending on the user.
Nuclear technology can be used to kill every human on earth. It can also be used to provide power and warmth for every human.
AI is no different. It can be used for good or evil. It all depends on the people. Vilifying the tool itself is a fool's argument that has been used since the days of the printing press.
