Since any reductions to copyright, if they occur at all, will take a while to happen, I hope someone comes up with an opt-in limited term copyright. At max, I’d be satisfied with a 45-50 year limited copyright on everything I make, and could see going shorter under plenty of circumstances.

I wish I could get through to people who fear AI copyright infringement on this point.

This is a great find.

That’s a pretty good summary.

It’s just one method to make tea. Some teas taste quite different from cup to cup (wuyi oolongs, for example), some are more consistent, in my experience. What I like is that it’s easy to adjust depending on the outcome - one infusion is too weak or too strong? Brew the next one more or less.

I enjoy brewing loose leaf tea gongfu style (in a small vessel with many infusions): it gives me just enough to do, and a pleasant stimulus to focus on, that it’s very grounding.

Doesn’t have to be “the majority”, literally - a long as the minority is sizable enough, it can have a good influence on the rest.

Short sighted behavior is hardly limited to capitalist enterprises, though.

How is Stable Diffusion connected to bad/short term orientated social media company policy changes? The ChatGPT connection I understand, even if I don’t think it’s the root cause. (Interest rate increases I think are more fundamental, even if AI is cited by companies as an influence on their choices.)
