Well hopefully I would be ejected from the gravitational pull of Earth and sent into the far reaches of space where I would float for billions and billions of years. Eventually, I would be found by an advance space faring species and reanimated, thus starting my triumphant bid to take back my home planet, only to learn that humans died off billions of years ago and an newly emerging, yet rather intelligent homonid has evolved on a planet Earth that has healed from it's homo sapien induced climate disaster.
By now, the planet's tectonic forces will have moved the crust into a "neo-pagea", in fact this has happened a few times over by now, and our old home's surface is unrecognizable from what I would have left behind..
My first plan will be to plant an obelisk on the planet, to see how these new hominids behave.
That is a slippery slope fallacy.
The US is already at world historic levels of wealth inequality, yet we produce such a shit ton of art that our culture is our predominant export.
indeed, so long as they don't get pissed if and when I steal theirs.
yes because I could steal my work right back from them, or even steal theirs first!
that is fucking fantastic!!!
Here's my argument: tough titties. Everything Greg Rutkowski has ever drawn or made has been inspired by other things he has seen and the experiences of his life, and this applies to all of us. Indeed, one cannot usually have experiences without the participation of others. Everyone wants to think they are special, and of course we are to someone, but to everyone no one is special. Since all of our work is based upon the work of everyone who came before us, then all of our work belongs to everyone. So tough fucking titties, welcome to the world of computer science, control c and control v is heavily encouraged.
In that Beatles documentary, Paul McCartney said he thought that once you uttered the words into the microphone, it belonged to everyone. Little did he know how right he actually was.
You think there is a line between innovation and infringement? Wrong, They are the same thing.
And for the record, I'm fine with anyone stealing my art. They can even sell it as their own. Attribution is for the vain.
I mean, this isn't that surprising as the algorithm is intended for full dopamine distribution. It's like a fucking dopamine faucet and we are all just a bunch of apes.
I don't think the idea should be to make the algorithm's ungameable because I feel like that is literally impossible with humans. The first rule of web dev or game dev is that the users are going to find ways to use your site, app, software, or api in ways you never intended regardless of how long you, or even a team of people, think about it.
I'd rather see something where the algorithm is open and pieces of it are voted on by the users and other interested parties. Perhaps let people create and curate their own algorithm's, something like playlist curation on spotify or youtube but make it as transparent as possible, let people share them and such. Kind of like how playlists are shared.
STRAIGHT TO JAIL!!!
But there in lies the problem, money is solely the domain of government, and anyone who thinks it isn't is extremely ignorant and naive of how money actually works. The crypto bros have been lying to you, and while the cypher punks meant well, they are woefully ignorant about things like history and jurisprudence.
There is a path forward with crypto currency, but it isn't through private endeavor. Otherwise we would be trading in wampum shells.
