Maybe being able to follow a set of (seemingly silly) instructions should be part of the interview/onboarding process. And emphasised at job performance time.

But that happens anyway. Patent litigation is expensive and time consuming and is far more often used to punch down, regardless of merits.

The fairy tale of the solo patent holder fighting off giant mega corporations is worthy of a Hallmark movie and just as realistic.

That doesn’t make it less true!

It’s a bet because it’s risky “capital is at risk”,“value of investments can go down as well as up” etc. As opposed to a savings account which is far far less risky enough that it’s not really a bet.

How do you use AI to learn internals of massive repos? Surely the context is too big and/or it requires opening org code up and I'd never get approval for that. What LLM do you use?

Perhaps forced bankruptcy to personally pay back compensation to the Post Office. Follow the money the way they do with terrorists.
