I wish I shared your optimism

The only way to do that is to stop needing oil.

A lot of the courses in Arizona aren't using potable water; they're using treated waste water.

That's my thinking.

Every large organization, private or public, that I've interacted has been basically just a bunch of different people in many different silos. I'm surprised to see so many people have this "well oiled machine" perspective of the government where apparently it is all seeing and all knowing.

You seem to have a very optimistic view of the efficiency of governments. I mean the IRS is basically running on a budget of table scraps after being defunded for decades.

Sure, that would be simple enough for them to mail you a letter with like "we're aware of these incomes from these employers" and any failure to file additional income on your part makes you liable. And of course not filing to claim any credits/deductions on your part just screws your out of your own money.

But then that also assumes the IRS knows your address. Does your employer even report your address when your taxes are withheld from your paycheck? And what if you move in the time between then?

But how did that person acquire the copyrighted work? Was the copyrighted material paid for?

That's the crux of the issue, Open AI isn't paying for the copyrighted work they are "reading", are they?
