Correct. USA will become like UK. Trump is trying to basically change the situation but he is pissing against the wind.

Correct.

So very true.

I used to be rich with selling a part of the stuff. FrameMaker. Used to be $5K US / copy Which came originally from Frame Technologies. [ Hi Steve Kirsch . I see you're rich still ]. PDF specification is wild. So right you are. At the time, many - including yours truly - said it was rude capitalism. So, you got it. People did not talk enough about DRM. Ps: I left Adobe embrace courtesy of my then wife, and me myself. I hate DRM as a user and as a -former- Salesman. Hola

Yea. Was there myself and so 'tis true

Yeah.

I am no longer into stuff like USD, and probably it is useful and a good thing. Adobe and Autodesk etc. will have an interchangeable structure. But I used to work for both of those companies indirectly and ..

They want closed systems as much as possible, only open standards etc. when forced to do so, because of course they want all the business and all the money. So USD probably good, but they will wield it against competitors (are there any anymore?) as much as possible.

IMNSHO. Sorry where it offends.

Happy Tiger I will remember because I agree totally. Yes "OpenAi/Microsoft" is right way to think about this attempt.

Keeps them busy

I'm not American even, so I cannot, but what a good idea! I hope the various senators hear this message.

I'm no expert, but I'm old and I think that Unix is actually the model that won. Linux won because of Unix IMO, and I think that its too late for the regulators. Not that I understand the stuff but like Unix, the code and the ideas are out there in Universities and even if OpenAI gets their licensing, there will be really open stuff also. So, no worries. Except for the fact that AI itself - well, are we mature enough to handle it without supervision? Dunno.

I do agree. Greed is not always the best.

I think so too.

Quite so.
