I am cool with everything stuffed into AI and freely distributed, whatever the form. Bluntly, I think copyright sucks, and want it gone. Nintendo shouldn't be able to patent game mechanics, and I would like to see more mashups of things.
I will support the elimination of copyright. But, as long as copyright exists, I will reject and resist AI.
That said, there are a number of other reasons I think AI sucks, it's not limited to copyright.
I support the elimination of copyright in it's current form
The way it was initially was fine IMO: 14 years, with an option to renew it at the end of those 14 years. ONCE.
Now in terms of patenting medications, if it was partially paid for with public money it's the public's patent. In other words it's open for everyone. Made a new medication but took a government grant to help fund it? It's public when it comes out, enjoy a nice hearty reward check for your efforts.
