[ExI] intellectual property again

Would the idea of a Singularity-inducing doodad or Godlike AI fall under the
category of intellectual property?  Seems like an odd and dangerous idea
that technology that powerful could be privately-owned.

Personally the thrill in transhumanism is being able to take part in these
events and not the enabling technologies being hoarded by the elite while
the other 99%
of us simmer in impotent rage.

other universes based on all sorts of other principles, but ours seems to be
based on war and games. All games are basically hostile. Winners and losers.
We see them all around us: the winners and the losers. The losers can
oftentimes become winners, and the winners can very easily become losers.."
