"@shadmbrooks Resale for profit has never fallen under fair use. True AI use is not illegal. But that's not a moral argument. Just because a new tool that disperses the theft across enough iterations to make it less visible comes along and the law doesn't yet touch it doesn't mean it's right"

"Just got called out for commie gobbledygook by a YouTuber I really like. xD Honestly this made my day. Commie and Gobbledygook are both incredibly underutilized words. Thoroughly amused by this exchange. Also always nice when people are able to disagree politely as Shad does. @Justin_O_Rose Nothing wrong with disagreeing. You can do all those things with AI tools and it's not stolen labor to me that just sounds like commie gobbledygook https://t.co/I72o1y2Cv9 @Justin_O_Rose Nothing wrong with disagreeing.

"@AHumanoidDroid2 @shadmbrooks If a bank has millions of customers and steals half a penny from every customer the theft is still 10s of thousands of dollars.
