Who gets to edit the human genome?: Global South sovereignty
The price tag Vertex priced Casgevy at $2.2 million per patient. The disease: sickle cell. The patients: Nigeria, DRC, India, Tanzania. The Nobel: Stockholm. The patent: Boston. The patients are in Kano. We have seen this.... AI inevitably will change the film industry forever. Deal with it. . Many of my friends in the film industry HATE AI. The hate the fact that AI will collapse the status quo in the industry. For some reason they prefer the studios to gate keep everything. I just don't get it. AI filmmaking will democratize the art and allow anyone create movies. Sure there will be a lot of slop, but as in all things, the cream will rise to the top. I'm a screenwriter and I already see how AI threatens what I do. But instead of cursing the darkness, I'm teaching myself to use AI. I'm trying to ride the tsunami instead of being washed away by it.
People can’t sell work they don’t own. Companies don’t want to pay ai users to create stuff that They can’t exclusively control the IP of. Direct to consumer AI tools are just marketing for enterprise level tools for big tech.... IP is a boomer concept in the age of abundance. This is a hot take that really has me thinking.
I generally feel negatively toward Kyle for a myriad of reasons, but this is a really interesting proposal.I’m still noodling on it. Thought I’d share so others can join me in the noodling.
I think compensating the people who the AI is drawing from would be wonderful. The idea that “if the AI knows who to replicate, it knows who to compensate” is elegant and compelling.... IP is a boomer concept in the age of abundance. This is a hot take that really has me thinking.

When you say relative do you mean absolute dollars or percentage of income, or? A bit of both? To expand the "broke studio" example: I was imagining a small studio who spent all their money to produce some art that was enjoyed by many.... IP is a boomer concept in the age of abundance.

If the AI knows who to replicate, it knows who to compensate. Spotify compensates the artists who put their music on spotify. AI companies are sitting on piles of cash, directly replicating art via specific consumer demand, and it would be very simple to provide compensation to...

There's something compelling about this idea but I think the attention-grabbiness of it obfuscates the complex reality it's trying to highlight. some scattered thoughts that point toward a similar territory, IMO It seems to me protecting IP has done a lot of good, and will likely...

A lot of IP law does seem weird. Digital technology a playground for post-scarcity, but large companies are intent on maximum "value extraction" from the ideas they generate.... What do you think of Circling Europe dropping the term "Circling?". I almost don’t want
Circling Europe
to show up in my feed, but I am very curious about people’s thoughts and reactions.I get really curious about what these leftover feelings are that you haven’t attended to and what it means… what is the undesired outcome… if you give CE your attention....
