30. Replacing old inventions with new inventions
Wed Jun 3, 2026, 02:41 PM

is not the same as replacing art made by humans with art made by machines. Machines which cannot make art without stealing from past and current human artists.

I'm speaking for artists but it's not the only field where human input and human activity should not be eliminated.
I support Bernie's idea; but it only addresses part of the problem. It's not just about the money. It's about what kind of world we want to live in.
