Raw LLM Responses

Our society is a shared fertile soil, from which every person and company both extracts value for themselves, and gives back to enrich the soil for all. Institutions (primarily government), set rules the rules for extraction, but especially for how much of your individual success needs to be contributed back for the benefit of all. Sadly we've been on a 7-decade shift toward asking less and less from those who have benefitted the most from the Commons. But this isn't just a matter of economic fairness anymore. AI companies' leaders are racing to quite literally, personally "OWN" the future of humanity, and their decisions will reflect an untempered level of self-interest, because society has set the standard that they are personally entitled to all of the benefit, of the success they've managed to draw from the commons. --- We need a complete reset in how we think and speak about who is entitled to benefit from success. Consider Microsoft in its first 10 years, should they get nearly all the credit (and profit) from becoming the computer OS of record, because all that value only exists, due to their unique and unreplaceable contributions? Or was some, (maybe even most) of that success a result of an extremely fertile society, that was ready for a revolution in personal computing? If Microsoft and their software had been founded in the Soviet Union, their success wouldn't even register a blip today, but the U.S. would have still had a revolution in personal computers, with a different company claiming the credit!
