If you have watched a normie use AI and thought See?! It's not rocket science! We are all the same. then buddy, you are a normie. They are very very bad at it. (If you have not watched an average someone use AI, then I highly recommend it, if for no other reason than to understand your placement on the curve.)

> Your job will be gone and so will mine.

I mean, that's probably true, but the person you are replying to is talking about the present.

You actually don't speak for us. On the contrary, it is because of threads like this that I am aware of bcherny's reputation. You are woefully ill-equipped to be assigning value to anyone's contributions or policing their tone, especially as someone who so eagerly laps up what he is fed by bad-faith actors.

> I’m surprised that you haven’t noticed this yourself

How much money have you lost to crypto scams.

We are giving you an opportunity to correct yourself. You are instead trying to make your nonsensical statement make sense. Not only does the first part of your sentence literally contradict the second part:

> We don't have enough accurate knowledge to say [one way or the other], and it doesn't seem to be the case at all [based on our incomplete knowledge].

But it is in no way equivalent to this:

> We can't say that for sure, but my money is on it not being a simple case of intellectual property theft

That is a different sentence.

An opportunity to correct myself? Respectfully, I decline. If you have trouble parsing my sentence, it's not meant for you.

It's wild to watch you lecture someone who just made you aware of the topic that you are lecturing him about.

> These are boomer-tier talking points

Add to your excellent takedown the implication that any of us can walk into a school with our résumé and ask for a teaching interview. It's the most meme-ified of the boomer memes presented unironically.

It is unfathomably weird of you to post like a raving lunatic and then get pissy when we downvote you.

> You're not paying to use HN.

Oh for sure man, this absolutely looks like you were only concerned and talking about paid services:

> Broad and perpetual license over inputs and outputs, and even your name and profile picture.

The post I was replying to wasn't talking about that, but sure, let's consider it.

Everything I post here is public, and it's just relatively low value commentary anyway. It doesn't matter if Y Combinator has rights to it. Arguably they actually need to assert some rights, otherwise they wouldn't be able to transfer copies of copyrighted comments to other visitors of the site. HN's terms are probably too broad for their purposes but it doesn't really matter much because this is just a forum.

AI on the other hand is for actual work, both public and private. There are actual economic implications here, so the stakes are much higher. I absolutely want to own the inputs and the outputs I paid money for.

That quote supports the claim being made by the person who you are calling wrong.
