>I think the differences between inventing a story or song and inventing a theory are not as great as you pretend.

I do not pretend anything and I‘m not talking about inventing a story. I‘m talking about movie production, which, even with heavy use of AI is by orders of magnitude more expensive than a piece of free software, and certainly cannot be done with a single computer.

Why are you choosing to compare inventing math to producing a movie? How does that help you advance your argument that it is reasonable for one to be under copyright and not the other?

Movies absolutely can be created with one computer. There was a movie shot entirely on an iphone. They can be edited on an iphone too. Heck, movies can be created without a single computer. That was the only way to make movies for many decades.

    I don’t understand where did you get that from. I did not „choose“ that. Please re-read the conversation.

    > There was a movie shot entirely on an iphone.

    And? Are you claiming that someone can shoot „All quiet on Western front“ with iPhone and on low budget?

    Yes. What is your argument exactly?
