>everyone using this technology loses

As someone not using the technology, I'm fine with that :) Intellectual property laundering was never a good thing. Glad we can begone with it.

This doesn't help; customers will switch to a different model.

It just means the government decides who gets to profit off of laundered IP, which is arguably even worse.

I'm pretty sure it's the people paying for it that decide who profits off it.

Intellectual property is not a good thing.

Yeah but doesn't all the ai stuff kinda either way exacerbate the issues we might have with IP? Like, if it wasn't already the case that such laws are fundamentally sided with huge pools of capital who arbitrarily "own" different sequences of bytes, it certainly is now. It's like its trying to destroy intellectual property and then put this deranged hyper-financial game of energy expenditure in its place.
