Software IP in the times of LLMs - by Karthik S

The article discusses how large language models (LLMs) are transforming the concept of software intellectual property (IP). It contrasts traditional views of IP, which focus on code, with the modern understanding that emphasizes the importance of internal knowledge and ideas. The author uses analogies from Mackenna's Gold and the Mahabharata to illustrate that hiring knowledgeable founders may be more beneficial than acquiring their code, as LLMs make it easier to translate ideas into workable software.
