I never learned a ton of math but I use computer chips that were designed by people with years of experience in engineering to do math for me.
True, also they all got a salary and royalties for their work. They were well compensated and they continue being compensated. Have you heard of ARM Holdings? Its the British CPU design firm that designed all the CPUs in your phone and now in your macbooks. Apple and others continue paying them for their work they did in the 80s.
How much is the estate of von Neumann making off each Mac sale though? Knr for each rust program?
I also think that the use of AI is a fair game, the problem is that the thing itself is made possible by the hard work of thousands of people. By hard work, I mean years or even decades of development. They didn't learn to draw perfect photorealistic paintings, they developed styles and methods that capture something about humans and the machine took it from them.
