## Resource

How do we define private property? Normally it’s what we work to build or own. Our own labor and effort are what establish ownership. We strive. We write songs. We create movies. We innovate. We invent. And we build. But what happens when all that effort just goes away? Artists don’t need to draw anymore. Poets don’t need to reflect. Musicians don’t need to play. Everything is created in an instant, with a single command. Who owns the result? And if everyone is creating like this constantly, how long before every possibility is owned and locked away? This is the challenge we’re now facing with artificial intelligence, as it runs into intellectual property laws.
