Hell yeah!
I do wish I.P. dead. Or at least, I wish for a much shorter protection period, and for original authors / artists only. For all the wrong reasons, but primarily, because nothing's sacred. Amen.
I get corporate IP is used for a lot of bad. But intellectuals and artists create a lot of value for society in ways that are very hard to monitize as a individual. If we completely kill IP what becomes of our authors, philopshipers, historians, artists etc.?
They are already having it hard as it is with existing ip protections vs. big tech, big pharma, big record labels, etc.

People do abuse the protections, which are too lengthy, makes possible to sell rights, etc.
In the end, corporations (ab)uses (buy and sell rights) protections for amassing fortunes much bigger than the original creator ever got. That's not right, not fair, at all. System's broken, need fix, throw it all out and build something new, centered around creators.
Give back to creators only, for less time.
At the moment, most creators are starving, while everyone, AI included, are feeding on them - big time. Successful then powerful creators only may dream about making AI pay - to them only.
Maybe it's time for some minimum revenue scheme for all creators, on top of heavy limitations on IP. Maybe AI corps can pay for that?
