How has this whole saga not been an obvious indictment of 'the free market?'
Big players shouldn't be allowed to gobble up all the resources needed by small ones. How is it not obvious that they need to wait until production increases to meet their needs before embarking on their little project?
No this is exactly what the free market is. Regulations that make things fairer for small people is communism.
Then give me communism bc this free market shiz aint it. Giving us the scraps that AI doesn't want is just nuts if we get anything at all. Esp since no one beyond billionaires want this ai crap
The free market means the market is free to fuck you. Yes you in particular ๐
