Perhaps he should go easy on the euphemisms then and show respect for the developers who wrote the corpus of software that this AI is being trained on (perhaps illegally).


OK, then ask him to go easy! Great idea, and it might get a good response.


I'm sure natfriedman will be thrilled to abolish IP and also apply this to the Windows source code. We can expect it on GitHub any minute!


I used to work at Microsoft and occasionally would email Satya the same idealistic pitch. I know they have to be more conservative , but some of us have to envision where the math can take us and shout out loud about it, and hope they steer well. When I started at MS, my first week was heckled for installing Ubuntu on my windows machine. When I left, windows was shipping with Ubuntu. What may seem impossible today can become real if enough people push the ball forward together. I even hold out hope that someday BG will see the truth and help reduce the ovarian lottery by legalizing intellectual freedom.


Talking about the ovarian lottery seems strange in a thread about an AI tool that will turn into a paid service.

No one will see the light at Microsoft. The "open" source babble is marketing and recruiting oriented, and some OSS projects infiltrated by Microsoft suffer and stagnate.


All I know is that if a lawsuit comes around for a company who tried to use this, Github et al won't accept an ounce of liability.
