Nobody owns the AI idea. People own the physical robots they are in, though. That's what I'm talking about. The robots are a physical thing. Like that Sawyer robot crap you posted. You can literally own one. That has the AI in it, right? And somebody can buy and own one, right? So yes. People can own the AI. The AI is not the robot; those are two different components. The AI is the intelligence; the robot is the physical shell. Physical shells are comparatively easy to build - most robotics hobbyists could build a shell for an AI for a very small cost. All someone needs to do is upload an AI programming module to the internet and people would be set. All it takes is one altruist (or, if we're honest, pirate). LinkPizza posted... And the AI mimicking the bands is the problem. All they do is mimic. That is factually wrong. They are no more (or less) mimics than we are, since we use a similar process to come up with our music. LinkPizza posted... If you like the fakes, good for you. I don't. And will avoid them. Good luck with that. You've already admitted you couldn't tell the AI-produced music posted earlier in the topic from the real thing. LinkPizza posted... And while you say my interpretation is incorrect, I was just basing on what you said earlier Your interpretation of what? Please provide context to your sentences or quote what you're responding to, because otherwise it's impossible to tell what you're talking about when you suddenly change subjects like this. LinkPizza posted... a.) That seems like bad business if you can't get enough customers. Normally, when people are making a business, they make a business that people need. Therefore, they would have plenty of customers. I live where I live. I didn't choose to live here because I thought it would be a good business opportunity. This may surprise you, but people aren't always thinking about maximizing their profit. Could I make more money elsewhere in a place that has more customers? Certainly. I don't really want to, though. LinkPizza posted... b.) Your profits margins shouldn't be that slim for a business. As the point of a business is usually to make money. Usually, but not always. In my case, it isn't. I honestly don't care if I make a huge amount of money off this business. It's a side-gig for me, not something that puts food on the table. It gets me some extra cash each year, but it's not something that will decide whether I can pay the bills at the end of the month. --- Kill 1 man: You are a murderer. Kill 10 men: You are a monster.
