This person did not mention the issue of AI and copyright disputes. Did I overlook it?
In addition, Marxism or communism, in fact, aims to enable people to live freely without the need for work, which requires great productivity to achieve. However, this person claims that Marxism advocates the value of labor, but no, he has mistaken the target
yes there is a section of copyright in the blog article, it is well studied and well documented that intellectual property is an inconsistent concept invented by bourgeois to commodify ideas and extract rent from patents. In the article I link this conference by Richard Wolff as an introduction to the resource on the topic:
Furthermore I think you misread the article, the article says that the overemphasis on the labor value of the AI hating crowd is a point that Marxists have studied and well understood, early Marxists fell to the same fallacy and put a lot of emphasis on the labor value too, which is something most serious Marxists have move past AFAIK. Baudrillard's The System of Objects is a great book about this.
i see, so when u say private property, it means copyright or something, i thought something reality, like u buy a food, it's ur propertydemolition. i think the way he said (reward people for new ideas) is a good way. but now copyright has a time limit about 60 years, right? it can slightly reduce the impact and ensure the rights of those who invent new things.
I have never said "private property" just property in general, private property is usually excluded from this kind of discussion because it's a different form of property which probably should be called something else.
To be completely transparent, I am against the concept "you buy a food", I am against the use of money especially for basic necessities like food.
There are many alternatives to the concept of intellectual property that those scholar discuss (you can research "copyleft" for instance) that are way more effective that lowering the age limit of the current extractory system. I also should point out that the myth of intellectual property stimulating innovation is also widely disproven.
But it's a whole field of study that I have no desire or credential to summarize in a few forum posts so I'll leave you to your research. Just make sure to consider alternatives to current systems, not just slight modifications, because we need rapid, radical and massive change as confirmed by the doubling of the speed of the current ecosystemic collapse.
Btw you mentionned you were from China, may I ask what part of China, I'm curious about your background, it could help me improve my communication.
i mean right now, the world still run base on u need to buy food, but yeah, basic things like food if they can be free, then it's alreay like communist society, but it's still far away. I come from a big city but not hot citys for foreigners i guess... Actually, when I was a child, I was very skeptical about the idea that "copyright can stimulate innovation", but my teacher felt that this was my problem lmao
that is very interesting, thanks for sharing! I disagree with a lot of your presuppositions, there is already enough food produced in the world to feed everyone if the distribution used better mechanisms, there is definitely no "need" for money, but that's also a completely different topic xD I wonder if the education in China around the concept of copyright was always in this direction, I suspect it might have been a lot more skeptical of copyright before the 80s, but that's research I'll keep for some other time :)
idk the other countries, but i think food in China is enough, so yeah, but i mean the world run based on it, i think if someone can change it...that's too hard thb lol, after all, this world already run by this way like maybe 4000 years. i guess we need a character like Jesus lol. and well in China, before people basicly follow the west way, like copy how USA does it, and import a lot of things like capital, the core of capitalism, and even a Chinese person wrote an article praising capitalism, which was published in schools and every middle school student had to learn (to be honest, I hated this article at the time).
So in the past, many people in China were actually "worshipping foreign things" or blindly believing in the identity of the "beacon of justice" of the United States. I was also very fond of the United States before I was about 10 years old (because you know, we have to learn English, and most English teachers are from studying abroad in the United States, so they blindly believe in the United States), until later when I went online myself, I found that although many people also like the United States online, after reading history, I realized that the United States is clearly not a so-called "just country"? (Although I later understood that a country cannot be judged by justice or evil, because a country is a collective, a collection of many people), overall, Chinese people now basically understand a truth, which is that we cannot blindly trust Westerners, we need our own system to better protect ourselves
(used translation, cuz too much words XD)
The theme emphasized by China now (or rather the theme I learned about about about 8 years ago) is "innovation and autonomy". Schools encourage middle school students to participate in a competition, which requires you to draw a picture to describe the future. You can give some ideas and thoughts, and even provide a feasible design plan. Regarding copyright issues, most programmers in China are not very concerned about AI copyright issues, but artists are very disliked (referring to those who draw, not including artists who make sculptures or other things, and I don't know about that type of people). However, apart from that, the public has a indifferent attitude and likes to use AI to generate funny pictures or interesting videos. The reasons why domestic artists dislike AI that I have heard are mostly related to copyright. They feel that AI has infringed on their painting copyright. However, I think AI itself is a process of learning images, providing prompt words, and then generating autonomously. I don't think this is considered infringement (but if I say this, artists will definitely kill me). The copyright policy in China is also similar. You can apply for a copyright, and there is a copyright period during which no one can steal your design. Then there is a phenomenon: many graduate or doctoral students must apply for a certain number of copyrights, although I don't know the meaning of this behavior, I think it's just too much. It's just some junk copyright
