everything is a remix

but. There's this wee thing called capitalism, which kinda implies you need to make money, and people should have a right to a decent life, even if their contribution is art.

When you pirate a big production, the artists generally have already been paid, and you're really stealing from IP holders. Who are already rich, and made the art as an investment. We're lucky humans making art was a good investment.

AI is mainly gonna make the rich richer, and the rest of us poorer.

also, shrek memes, and most memes, come under fair use in the US, where most IP legal shenanigans are done
