The tech bro brigade is at it again, and this time they’re coming for your art, your creativity, and basically your entire livelihood.

Jack Dorsey and Elon Musk dropped a bombshell on the creative world last Friday, casually suggesting we should “delete all IP law” like it’s no big deal. Because why should artists actually get paid for their work, right? 🙄

The Silicon Valley Smackdown

In a move that screams “we know better than everyone,” these tech moguls are pushing to fundamentally dismantle intellectual property protections. Their argument? AI needs “freedom to learn” - translation: we want to use your art without paying you a dime.

Artists Fight Back

Over 50,000 artists, including heavy hitters like Thom Yorke and Julianne Moore, aren’t sitting quiet. They’ve signed an open letter basically telling tech companies: “Not today, Silicon Valley”. Their message is crystal clear - using creative works to train AI without licensing is an “unjust threat” to artists’ livelihoods.

The Hypocrite’s Playbook

The real kicker? These same tech execs who built their empires using IP protections now want to blow up the system that protected their own innovations. Ed Newton-Rex, CEO of Fairly Trained, called it exactly what it is: a “declaration of war on creators”.

As AI continues to push boundaries, one thing is certain: artists aren’t going down without a fight. The battle for creative rights is just getting started, and we’re here for the drama. 💥
