Public libraries have to pay higher prices for the books in their collection, so why do AI companies get to scrape the intellectual property of the world for free?
Location:
Chicago, Illinois, U.S.A.
Professional title:
Guitarist and web developer
What do you do?
As a guitarist, I play primarily in musical theatre orchestras and in traditional Irish music settings throughout Chicago. I've played in the orchestras for Hamilton, Lion King and many other shows. As a developer, I work freelance and specialize in using the Django web framework. I am currently the developer for the global art marketplace www.inprnt.com.
Why?
I like performing in places where people aren't on their phones. Live theatre and pubs (believe it or not) are places where the people listening are in it for the moment happening before their eyes. As for coding, that's just fun.
