SK Hynix is making an absurd amount of money from the RAM shortage, and the employees are not unreasonably demanding their cut from it.

People forget that all the training data to make these things was harvested with little concern for copyright or proper licensing.

A dividend or basic income or something funded by a tax on this stuff is not at all unreasonable.

The technology is cool but it’s basically mass piracy.
