Accused: "Your honor, it would be impossible for me the live at the standard I have become accustomed to were I not to rob banks."

Judge: "That sounds like a reasonable defense."

What we criminalize in individual behavior, we call "innovation" when it comes to Big Tech. The whole system is bought and owned by Big Tech.

@gerrymcgovern there is a certain irony in how the copyright industry has worked two decades to criminalize what they call copyright infringement (think of all the poor artists they said!) and now lawyers need to think up how mass infringement is somehow ok because it's done at Industrial scale.

Another great piece about AI from @pluralistic https://pluralistic.net/2024/04/01/human-in-the-loop/#monkey-in-the-middle
Cory pinpoints in a few succinct paragraphs how robot assistance has been and can be great and helpful and turns us into powerful "centaurs" but that the way to profits lies in "reverse centaurs" where AI is the pilot and humans are tasked to correct bot productions at superhuman speed, degrading us to robots. In other words, AI driven Automation is only profitable if it enshittifes our work and life.
