AI have no rights. Your AI creations are right-less. They belong in the public domain. If not, they are properties of the peoples whose art you stole to make the AI.

I think it’s bizarre to see “Socialists” siding with techbros and VC companies against artists and workers. The economic relationship is why it’s theft. The creation of art is for many artists how they sell their labor, how they make money, how they get food on the table, generative AI does not currently exist in any capacity except large tech companies who are commercializing this art without the permission of these artists often explicitly against their wishes and reaping the full rewards of that. It is an exploitation of their work.

The luddites were right you realize of course? My issue is with capitalism yes, and the expansion of copyright to an industrialized art theft ring run by tech companies to the detriment of artists. Something you are cheerleading based on… what, contrarianism? A desire to be fucking wrong?
No they weren’t. Luddites were fighting to keep the unwashed masses from weaseling in on their jobs. This is middle class reactionary stupidity. Read some fucking theory. Value is a product of labor. Lower labor costs lowers the value of products.
The automation of equipment makes jobs for less skilled people and raises the living standards of everyone. Lower cost of production makes goods cheaper as all.
Its true the increased profits make the rich richer buy they do it at the expense of the skilled labor and artisan middle class. The middle class uphold the capitalist status quo. If their standard of living falls they are more likely to see and act on the contradictions of capitalism than if they stay in the comfort of the middle class.
The reason that communism will win is that Capitalists will inevitably destroy the middle class making them working class which will radicalize them.
