Not joking: This guy is clearly a generational talent at crushing startup interviews, so why doesn't he pivot to coaching for that? He could make bank off his infamy with this move.

A trio of artists sue Stability AI, Midjourney, and DeviantArt over AI art copyright; a firm suing Microsoft, GitHub, and OpenAI over Copilot filed the lawsuit

I think this is absolutely correct. I was looking at the list of plaintiffs in this Stability AI suite, & they were clearly very carefully selected.

Like most things web3, you can't grasp this until you're down the rabbit hole. This is why the people from these institutions have seized on “crypto bros” — a comfortable (for them) stereotype.
