Earlier quoted context omitted.

There is no such thing as private property. It's a fiction enforced with the threat of violence. It's even fairly recent as a concept. If we agree that private property should exist, "it's not real" is not a good argument for why intellectual property shouldn't exist. Not all violations of private property have to be stealing. If I sleep in the empty house you own, that is trespass even if I don't cause any physical…

Private property !== personal possessions. I, for one, don't agree private property should exist, just like intellectual property. There is no place in the future for such concepts, they all feel quite antiquated.

What about possessionless property rights, that are only utilised to enforce theft and robbery laws?

What the government needs to do is to say that all AI-generated content is CC-SA 4.0 or GFDL and all the code is AGPL . That oughta do it. (edit: I put "CC-BY-SA" and then I remembered there's no need to give credit to a hunk of sand and electrons!)

Or, specified more correctly, a share alike and attribution regime not based on copyright.

What if someone who's blind just randomly pulls out a camera and takes some snaps (without knowing anything about what might be going on). Do they get a copyright on their photos?

probably not

Then Lomography can't be copyrightable, especially if "shooting from the hip" (rule #4)? [1]

chatgpt4 summarized: This is a statement of policy by the U.S. Copyright Office to explain how it examines and registers works that contain material generated by artificial intelligence (AI). The statement is effective from March 16, 2023. The Office has experience and expertise in distinguishing between copyrightable and noncopyrightable works. The Office may require additional information from applicants who use AI…

Thats a pretty bad summary

Pretty correct, but it wasn't mine (my comment) but chatGPTs. I just presented the commentt from chatGPT for fun - which might not comply with rules that i dismissed. Sorry, i wanted to publicy show the summarization-feature, but still: it was not my best idea. You can always do your own summ...
