Thanks

Something to do with generating an interference pattern of the wavefronts but nothing that explains it where I’d understand.

Thanks for the info. Really disappointing, but not surprising, that Canada would spend the time and effort to establish the declaration but not promote it through their travel advisory information. The tightrope that is foreign relations is a real problem.

Edit: The link you provided didn’t work for me.

I wonder if a good approach to this would be to get ahead of the AI problem and declare AI sentient (right word?). Then all IP produced by an AI would be owned by that AI and the creator of the AI would have no rights or say over it or the proceeds generated by it. Some would argue that would really hurt the progress in AI but I think that is a possitive in this regard. AI could still be used as a task performer that would generate lots of savings/revenue, it would just stop the IP issue.
