This idea reads like a joke, but there's something to it. One feature request: In addition to high-level milestones, it would be cool if a partially-funded project would generate a public, highly detailed implementation plan. Also, IANAL but MIT is still a license with a copyright holder. I don't think saying "it's MIT, we all own it" is defensible. The courts might view all this code as public domain.

Highly detailed plan with time for the backers to comment and suggest improvements*

Earlier quoted context omitted.

I don’t know, if the design itself is copyrighted you could argue that the AI is just a bunch of hired workers that built it for extremely low wages. If I hired a bunch of people to build me a house, and I drafted the architectural plans with the help of a paid architect, neither the architect nor the builders have ownership over the home. So if a collection of people design something together maybe that has merit, t…

I’m pretty sure copyright office has settled that already. Inly human expression can be copyrighted: > As described above, in many circumstances these outputs will be copyrightable in whole or in part—where AI is used as a tool, and where a human has been able to determine the expressive elements they contain. Prompts alone, however, at this stage are unlikely to satisfy those requirements. https://www.copyright.gov/…

The United States Copyright office. There's a whole world outside the US.

And even then they can change their mind.

Does not hurt to backstop with an explicit license.

It would work if an engineer steered the pools. But doing this autonomously is a pipe dream.

there's a job going if you fancy it... pool steersman

I'd love to see Anthropic (or someone with mythos access) create a cybersecurity version of this. So that I could create a pool that says "find security concerns in this github repo." Then the report from mythos gets sent to the code/project maintainer and revealed to the public (that paid for it) at the 90 day mark.

I've always wanted to figure out how to implement a cooperative source license. Something like, you're allowed to do what you want with it, but any derivative work requires the same license, and X% of any income goes to the cooperative?

Not sure how it'd work, but there's absolutely a niche for a privacy focused data cooperative out there.
