  • There’s a pill that just finished phase 1 trials that can cure osteoarthritis.

    Well, it’s a treatment that allows joint cartilage to regrow and heal properly.

    It also reverses age related muscle loss.

    Now, these things can come back, but they need to degrade naturally again. Probably. We don’t know how fast the degradation will set in once the suppression of the gerozyme is removed.

    If you want to learn more, look up 15-PGDH inhibitors. I’d link to the Stanford study, but that’s a bit hard from my phone.

    As someone who has arthritic knees, I’ve been following the various clinical trials closely.

    Did you not live in the world before owning a tiny piece of it?

    This same land ownership argument was made in the 1640s, and then again in the 1770s, all to limit the rights of poor people in favor of the rich landlords.

    The rich assholes won the English civil wars, mostly because the opposition didn’t know what the hell they wanted or how to get it. And then Oliver Cromwell died without preparing any sort of successor.

    The new American government, having eventually learned its lesson, quickly abandoned the land ownership requirements for voting because it never made any god damn sense in the first place, and was just a way to keep poor people down, and the poor had just learned how to wage a war on absentee landlords.

    The law is very clear that non-human generated content cannot hold copyright.

    That monkey that took a picture of itself is a famous example.

    But yes, the OP is missing some context. If a human was involved, say in editing the code, then that edited code can be subject to copyright. The unedited code likely cannot.

    Human written code cannot be stripped of copyright protection regardless of how much AI garbage you shove in.

    Still, all of this is meaningless until a few court cases happen.
