And it is a sign of just how deep
these roots go, that the billionaire South African-born owner of this company can try to
you know, whitewash what's happening on the political level, you know, and the special treatment being given his countrymen is, you know, from his background is so crazy, like you say, so racist and so crazy now that it's been foisted on us by these systems we're supposed to believe.
Yeah, so the rip current, we're talking a lot about the ways in which Elon Musk, along with Google and OpenAI, have been, it seems, convincing Donald Trump that they should be allowed to basically take all copyrighted creative works in the world and just... Wait, it aired today.
I'm sorry.
It aired today.
It came out, I believe, just about an hour ago.
You know, it is...
It is this idea that, you know, I mean, in this country, the reason that we have such incredible works of art, not least the incredible remix culture we have.
The example I was using, you know, was Mary J. Blige taking a Barry White track and turning it into one of the great club anthems of all time.
That's because copyright allows us in this country to have great ideas and then work off of other people's great ideas to make even cooler stuff.
But that copyright also protects people from having their work stolen.
AI blows right through all of that.
And I think we're going to end up in a world in which we're going to be remixing the same songs over and over and over again.
And only the very richest among us are ever going to see a dime for it.
That's what could happen now that
Elon Musk, Sam Altman, and the others have all sort of gotten in Trump's ear.
And the news hook we're talking about is that he just fired the head of the copyright office, which was preparing to take a move against AI.
We're seeing some very high-level machinations about how AI is going to be basically let loose in society, even as you and I today are discussing the craziness that it can perpetrate on all of us.
This is the kind of philosophical thing you would go in on with Grok.
