The video does not speak about software patents, but it contains little or no explanation to back the (probably false) assertion that investors cease to invent and people go poor without patents. What the video shows by all means is that patents have -- at least in some people's view -- become American's "intellectual monopolies" that people often refer to.
In addition to the USPTO there is also the EPO, which will hopefully remain more sane. Here is a video showing the EPO. ⬆
Lawfare powered by slop companies (including Microsoft) from America, targetting British people who consistently oppose slop because it's objectively terrible
Time will tell is there are investigative journalists out there who will quit parroting Microsoft (e.g. false layoff figures) and relying on LLMs controlled by Microsoft to spew out false "facts" for them
If Microsoft admits that slop is too expensive and is for "entertainment purposes" because it cannot be relied upon, why would anyone other than the pushers and profiteers still insist that slop bears potential?
