Summary: The liars and shills working on behalf of Microsoft, salaried by Microsoft through the OSI, carry on controlling perceptions about "AI" while Microsoft uses it as a cover for mass plagiarism. Today's OSI totally lacks credibility and its Board is infiltrated by a Microsoft employee [1, 2] who is a close friend of Matthew J Garrett. It takes bribes from Microsoft to lobby for Microsoft, helping Microsoft against class action lawsuits for GPL violations, i.e. the very opposite of the OSI's mission. Mary Hardy (CELA) from Microsoft is in there, as usual. Their latest "debate" -- like previous ones -- is manned by Microsoft and sponsored by Microsoft.
