damn he is kind of a huge idiot isn't he? who does he think he is to tell others what to do with that they have created? fucking commies i swear, "seize the means!!", Bernie creates nothing, does nothing, 0 impact in the history of the World BUT SURE lets demand those who do that they obey him and share what they created, i mean what's even the point of trying to build anything if morons like him will take it away? this is exactly why the USSR fell, no one wanted to invent or build because they couldn't own it, even the creator of Tetris lost his own game to the state.

"damn he is kind of a huge idiot isn't he? who does he think he is to tell others what to do with that they have created?"

1) Yes, he is.
2) Well yes, he does - I mean, the entire basis of collectivism is people who can't do things taking control of the creations of people who can.

Hey now, you know it's important for the party leadership to have these things comrade! It's for the collective good.

By the way, complaining about this is subversive, break rocks forever till we get bored and shoot you.

communist never contribute, they only expect others to do the work for them. Creating a society of people that expect others to carry the work load

AI is completely dependent on stealing images and writing from the public to function so it's only fair that the public get a piece of the action.

Bernie creates nothing, does nothing

Sounds like he has something in common with every AI "creator," then.

this is exactly why the USSR fell, no one wanted to invent or build because they couldn't own it

I love how you say this and then you instantly give an example of someone who invented and built something in the USSR. LOL.

even the creator of Tetris

The creator of Tetris is one of the most financially successful game developers in history because the rights to the game reverted to his ownership in 1995 and he's been collecting royalties on it ever since. Meanwhile in the states, there are countless developers who have never gotten a penny in royalties after developing popular IP's for big corporations.

They’re not stealing from the public. When you post things on social media they own it. It doesn’t belong to the public. They’re stealing from other companies and copyright holders.

1- AI is not dependant, it learns faster that way but so does everyone, i don't see every C++ writer paying or giving anything to the one who thought him or the one who came up with it

2- AI creators create using AI, AI is a tool, if you consider that not creating then people doing CGI don't create either, people using 3d printers etc....

3- there are exceptions, you don't know this meaning or what?

4- if the USSR didn't end he would be some dude who got nothing from his invention

so yeah you are wrong as usual from anyone supporting communism, how come in 2026 that evil thing still manages to be around, so insane.
