@mrsmilowitz@itsolelehmann I see your point on the economic expectations and scale. I would think AI companies may argue they are extracting "ideas/concepts" rather than displacing the author, like what human readers do. Wonder if they will try claiming fair use.
@AndrewYang Who pays the tax? Non-AI companies that use AI or companies like OpenAI?
OpenAI apparently has ~$13B revenue but with a loss of $21B (or higher per some reports up to ~$38B). Will you tax a company that makes no money?
@krassenstein Prices are lower in EU because people do not have as much $ as US workers. The average German spends a greater percentage of their income on grocery items than the average American.
@Osint613 Demands like this do not automatically mean they hold the upper hand. If I asked for your X password, it wouldn’t prove I had leverage, it would just be a big ask. Iran protecting a key proxy feels more like damage control than a position of strength.
@SenWarren The video ignores the following
1. Pre-existing pressures on these businesses (e-commerce disruption, post-COVID shifts).
2. Cases where PE adds value or saves companies.
3. That bankruptcies transfer assets/restructuring often preserves some operations/jobs.
