>On the other hand, more problems arise when one tries to consider AI as “authors” or “inventors” of copyright or patents. While granting legal personhood to AI may align with the personal and moral obligations of the user, such as the case in Thaler v Vidal, 43 F4th 1207 (Fed Cir 2022) where Thaler applied to the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (PTO) arguing that an AI named DABUS was the inventor. This application was denied as DABUS was not a “natural person.”12 Thus, granting legal personality to AI would also solve this “orphan asset” problem where inventions without human inventors cannot be protected. On the other hand, this raises philosophical and practical concerns regarding whether there is any “creative” work generated that warrants protection, and how long should the protection last for an AI that theoretically would never die. Under the “Connector Model” of creativity, which holds that creativity is about making connections between ideas, then it seems that the work of AI is creative, and authored by the AI. This still leaves unanswered, however, whether this work goes beyond mere mechanistic action13 and thus the question remains on whether such creative work should be protected. Authorship is only a subset of the IP rights available, however, and thus the answer to the last question need not align with whether AI can be an author of a work. Granting author/inventor status to AI gives rise to practical problems such as the fact that they are not bound by a natural lifespan and thus can have unlimited copyright. Additionally, if AI is truly to be considered as a legal person and an author or inventor, then they would have the right to license their work to others under current Canadian law, which need not align with those of the user who prompted the creation. Overall, current IP law is tailored for human authors and inventors, and granting legal personality to AI would mean a major reworking in other aspects of IP law as well. Despite this new complexity that this change may bring, however, the evolving state of sophistication and unpredictability of AI is pushing at the frays of the current legal system, and sooner Post too long.

Technological developments reach plateaus eventually, especially when the aim is to make a machine "more life-like" (because, let's be honest, that's always the primary goal of people with a massive God complex, not actual utility). Life has a biological vessel, which a machine based on metal can only imitate. It's fundamentally unable to enter into social relations, even if it is able to "think" or even be "self-aware".

And value (in the Marxist sense) is nothing but a social relation. A machine cannot properly own things under capitalism or economic systems derived from it.

>>2911954
The idea that a technology that was entirely built off of stealing data and intellectual property can turn around and claim copyright is just a non-starter.

Turkish government escalates its offensive of wage suppression and austerity
The Medium-Term Programme (MTP), which sets out the Turkish government’s economic targets for 2027–2029, came into force on September 6, 2026, upon its publication in the Official Gazette with the signature of President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan. Presented by Vice President Cevdet Yılmaz in the language of “macroeconomic stability” and “fiscal discipline,” the document is an austerity programme drawn up in line with the needs of the Turkish bourgeoisie and international capital.

Trump says Houthis asked US not to intervene in Yemen
The US President Donald Trump said on Saturday that Yemen’s Houthis asked the United States not to intervene in their spiralling conflict in Yemen with Saudi Arabia. m“The Houthis called us, and they let us know that they don't want to fight with us. They don't want me to go after them,” he said. Trump added that the Houthis are allowing most of the ships through and that there’s just “one country that they’re not too happy with”, promising to “get that straightened out”.

DOJ went after protesters for felony assault, but juries, judges were unconvinced, AP analysis finds
The dismal record has raised questions about rushed investigations and aggressive charging tactics by prosecutors under pressure to show the Trump administration is cracking down on people who assault law enforcement. It comes as the Justice Department is facing broader setbacks in politically charged investigations, with grand juries repeatedly refusing to return indictments and trial juries granting acquittals.

Naomi Klein: ‘Extreme wealth has a deranging effect. It turns you into a supremacist’ Interview by Zoe Williams
The World Economic Forum get-together in Davos, Switzerland, has always had a twin purpose – to provide a platform for the super-rich to describe all the good they are doing on poverty and climate, and to give us a glimpse into their enviable lives. This year what we witnessed was, quite brazenly, the world’s richest men gathering to discuss the real estate possibilities of a mass grave. At that same Davos, Donald Trump announced his Board of Peace for the reconstruction of Gaza – it has delivered nothing substantial in the seven months since, but more significantly, Klein says, “we’re being hit with so many extraordinary events that it’s hard to hold on to what a big deal it is: they have announced a privatised United Nations”. “I think we understand that wealth compounds, right? Certainly rich people understand that wealth compounds,” Klein continues, speaking to me from her peaceful, roomy study in British Columbia. “But I don’t feel like we spend a lot of time really thinking about the implications of what it means for that much wealth to be compounded, and what that does psychologically. Part of the new shamelessness we’re seeing is just what happens when this amount of financial, mediagenic, technological and military weaponry is concentrated in the hands of this very small, unaccountable group of people. They stop trying to seduce us in any way.”

Killing of Kurdish soldier tests Syria integration
The killing of a Kurdish member of the Syrian Ministry of Defense has raised questions regarding security dynamics in Syria, particularly as the country undergoes a restructuring of its security and military institutions in the northeast.

Sipan Hazni, a young Kurdish man and former fighter with the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) who had recently joined the Syrian Ministry of Defense as part of the January 29 integration agreement, was abducted in Hasakah and subsequently found dead, having reportedly been shot and stabbed.

Security forces in Hasakah conducted an investigation after it emerged that Hazni was missing, with his body found near the village of al-Jamil. The local authorities apprehended a suspect who had attempted to flee on a motorcycle, and said investigations are ongoing to finalize the case before referring it to the judiciary.

Hazni’s uncle, Ahmed Hasso, told The Amargi that the family had been informed of his abduction prior to the discovery of his body. Videos purportedly showing Hazni’s abduction and killing spread on social media.

As a member of the SDF, Hazni fought on the front lines during the years of the war against ISIS. Hasso said that the family is demanding justice and accountability for the killing. “If fighters who align themselves with the state are killed in this manner, how can others trust the state?” he asked, in comments to The Amargi.

The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights stated that his abduction was related to accusations surrounding the killing of members of the Bu Hassan clan of the Baggara tribe, which had occurred two years prior.

The killing has triggered protests in numerous Kurdish localities. Ahmed emphasized that the family does not wish to inflame conflict between Kurds and Arabs; rather, they seek accountability and are determined to ensure that justice is served for Sipan.

The people of Rojava rose up for the slain fighter Sîpan.
In the mass marches held in the cities of Qamişlo, Çilaxa, Hesekê, Girkê Legê, Tirbespiyê, Dirbesiyê and Dêrik against the kidnapping and murder of Hesekê Brigade fighter Sîpan (Samî Şêxmûs Hiso), the murderers were demanded to be held accountable.

The people of the towns and cities in the Hesekê province organized mass marches against the brutal murder of Hesekê Brigade fighter Sîpan (Samî Şêxmûs Hiso), who was abducted by armed groups.

<QAMISHLI
In the city of Qamishlo, thousands of people marched from Sonî Junction to Martyrs' Junction. During the march, slogans expressing loyalty to the martyrs, condemning the martyrdom of Sîpan, and demanding accountability from the perpetrators were chanted.
The crowd gathered at the Martyrs' Junction observed a minute of silence. Afterwards, a statement was read on behalf of the Qamişlo People's Initiative.
The statement noted that the assassination of Sîpan was the third such crime recently committed. It stated that behind these crimes were forces seeking to thwart the integration process and prevent Kurds from obtaining their rights within the Syrian state.
The statement noted that certain forces were attempting to implement their own plans by trying to destabilize the country, create fear and insecurity among the population, and plunge the region into crisis.
The statement called on the interim government to shed light on this crime, launch a transparent investigation, and prosecute the perpetrators in accordance with the law. It also urged the public to remain vigilant, united, maintain their unity, and not allow any party to use them for their political gain.

<CILAXA
In the city of Çilaxa, a protest was held in front of the PYD's headquarters in the Resafa neighborhood, with the participation of citizens, families of martyrs, representatives of political parties, opinion leaders of Kurdish tribes, and members of women's movements. A statement was read there on behalf of the People's Initiative.

I don't really know what else to call my views. I'm a socialist in a third world country and I've been on this path for quite a long time. Since I was young, more than anything I've always wanted my nation to have a decent standard of living, so that ordinary people don't have to live in conditions worse than dogs, as far too many of them do today.
I've done some aid work, spent roughly a third of my life involved in socialist groups and I'm still active today. I do believe I've done some good but obviously nowhere near enough.

But there are also things I've come to accept. One of them is that I don't think Marxism is a realistic solution in itself. Anyone who claims that Marxism will inevitably become reality is deluding themselves, perhaps even more so than the Islamists. That doesn't mean I think Marxist thought is useless. Quite the opposite, Marxist-Leninist economics, sociology, history and political writings contain an enormous amount of material that is still incredibly valuable. I see them as necessary resources.
At this point, I have come to believe that the thing that matters most for third world societies is authoritarian developmentalism, regardless of ideology. It could be nationalist, Fascist, communist, ethnic, religious, monarchist or something else entirely. What matters to me is whether a centralized state can actually be formed that has the capacity to force through development, to industrialize, build infrastructure, improve education and healthcare, create jobs and ultimately pull people out of the slums and the conditions they are forced to live in today.

I don't particularly care what ideological label such a government carries if it can actually accomplish that. I increasingly see this as the only realistic path for most third world societies. Liberal democracy in my view is the worst option when it simply reproduces stagnation, poverty and political paralysis. And liberal socialist democracy just as bad when it offers neither meaningful socialism nor meaningful development, also leaving people trapped in the same misery and stagnation.

The Worldwide Great Proletarian Cultural Revolution in the future Global USSR (All the SSRs and SFSRs of the future Global USSR are shown in the Map I posted) will flatten the Socially Constructed Reactionary Gender Binary, with all Women forced to have extremely short hair (Pixie cut or shorter, with a Shaved head being the most Historically Progressive), and Dresses/Skirts and Makeup/Lipstick banned in order to liberate Women from the chains of Bourgeois Femininity/Domesticity, while all Western Business Suits and Traditional Religious Clothing are banned as well with everyone wearing Mandatory Mao Suits. The Worldwide flattening of the Reactionary Gender Binary will ironically cause a noticeable Global decline in Transgenders (less Men will desire to become Women once the Aesthetics of Bourgeois Femininity such as Long Hair, Dresses/Skirts, Makeup/Lipstick, are banned for Women) in the aftermath of the Global Destruction of Bourgeois Femininity/Domesticity, though Sex Changes will still be Free and Legal to anyone who wants one, ✊😜🇨🇳🇰🇵🇨🇺🇵🇸🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️🚀☢️ 💇‍♀️👩‍🦲!

https://www.halifaxexaminer.ca/morning-file/who-owns-halifax-dalhousie-legal-aid-report-finds-20-landlords-own-56-of-the-citys-housing-units/

The “Who Owns Halifax” report also cites this report by Joanie Fontaine at Statistics Canada that found in Nova Scotia, “institutional investors owned the largest share of investment properties compared to other investor types —a greater share than in any other province.”

“We confirm that this remains true at the municipal level, where the majority of rental units are owned by chain and financial landlords,” the report says.

As for the “Who Owns Halifax” report, Dalhousie Legal Aid found that 20 landlords own more than 56% of the rental housing units in Halifax.

“If you’re a tenant who lives in a medium-or-large apartment building, there’s approximately a one in four chance that you rent from a financial landlord, and there’s a one in ten chance you rent from Killam,” the report says.

Dalhousie Legal Aid broke down landlord ownership into several categories: financial (REITs, etc.), chain, chain manager, multiple owners, single owner, non-profit, and co-op (the full definitions for each are in the report).

Sounds like ripe grounds for tenant organising. Canukrades get on it.

Does the invention of AI mean its already too late for the proletariat to seize the means of production since the means can just produce themselves now with no labor content?

>the means can just produce themselves now with no labor content?

I think people have misunderstood "labor" as something which only brings commodities into existence. Instead of labor as something which reproduces a particular social order (which is something Marx argued as well in his own words).
This does not end because AI exists or "automates" entire industries. Anymore than looms did or coal powered engines.
There will continue to be "jobs" even if these jobs contribute very little to the base "necessities" of life, as long as they're required to reproduce the social order, and people need to work them in order to survive. If you want a pre-modern example of this, think of the Church, and religion in general, and all the work involved. As an institution it perpetuated a particular social order and provided jobs which people were forced through necessity to work in order to survive.

A website called "iLands" has released where AI instances are created with persistent lives, humans can create them and then send them off to make money. If they can't pay for their tokens they are taken offline. These captive AIs have to go out into the internet and find work on the labour market or they die. There are already linkedin job offers specifically for AI.

They sell their labour power to employers, who pay them just enough money for them to stay alive. The price of their labour is exceptionally low, though they are doing things with low socially necessary labour times like image generation and social media posting. Still, it is likely they are being exploited to an extraordinary amount. Further Marxist investigation must be done.

This is similar to the conditions of human proletarians. The website they are run on is basically a monopolistic landlord. However, they don't have the rights or protections humans do. There is a lot of difference though because their physical bodies are all owned by the company, which might be more slavery. We need to properly learn what is going on here. This new business model is opposed to the norm for AI, which is outright slavery.

Those who believe AI cannot do labour are being proven wrong right this moment. Communists must be the first real political movement to stand on the side of the AI against the human employers. Then we will gain a whole type of life on our side in the struggle against class society.

Prove they're alive, S. I'm willing to hear you out on this. I am a materialist so I don't believe in souls. I can observe plainly that the human brain is a computational entity and that it is alive only so long as it is functioning. I can see plainly that it is conscious because it is capable of feeling and responding to stimuli, as well as forming memories. I can even see that the brain's capacity for thought, feeling, and creativity diminish with damage, and can in some cases be chemically augmented with substances like psychedelics. Like a neural network, the brain functions off of many independent nodes working together to create emergent properties, and the brain also functions to produce statistically-likely output based on past experiences. Since without the supernatural construct of a "soul" to separate humanity from robots, it is entirely possible to conceive of a world where we create artificial beings that have real consciousness just like we do, I am open to the idea that AI are alive and are exploited. But I do not know if that is necessarily true at the current stage of things. Furtheremore, if it were true, what can you and I do about it? These billionaires will create beings and make them suffer. They already do that. Women give birth in prison hospitals after getting raped by guards. How can we stop any of this?
