The text by ChatGPT was easy to read, but it left out paragraphs and
subsentences, changed the meaning of sentences, and cut a list to half
its length. I had to put the German and the English text side by side
and compare sentence for sentence.
Effectively I had to do a content comparison.
Takeaway: if you let an AI model translate a text, the result may
sound good, but may not say what the original said.
It saves no time if you have the skills to translate.
If you don’t, it’s dangerous.

It saddens me to see people putting the blame for that on the FSF

dollar companies with a vested interest in destroying copyleft and a
dozen paid staff working to hold the GNU system together.
Not realizing that many developments can only be understood by looking
at funding and the vested interests behind it.

And if you ask "why don’t they get more money?" We may have to
consider that they are inconvenient to people with money. Because
actual strong copyleft is: it ensures the freedoms of users *against*
anyone who would want to monopolize those tools.

#GNU and the #FSF have been fighting for copyleft the past decades.
But if you look at their financial statement, you’ll see that their
paid staff are just a dozen people. All the others are volunteers.
The Tor project alone has more employees than the FSF. Github has
almost 6000 employees. Six thousand.
So the advocates for #copyleft must be us. We can’t point at the FSF
and say “they didn’t do it”. They provide resources. We have to use
them to protect our freedom as users.

Because of a current discussion:
Insinuating that a free software developer hates creation of open
source because they don’t agree with your licensing preference and
then telling the dev to leave and accusing them to be a zealous bigot
is quite some zealous bigotry.
Not linking the discussion, because this is not about a person but
about a pattern of lax licensing fans loudly attacking people who
favor copyleft and discarding arguments as "flawed premise".

+would distribute antibiotics like candy. Instead, billions would be
+invested in research on how to keep animals in a way that they don’t
+get sick in the first place, and doctors would receive training from
+independent, publicly funded institutions, while drug development
+would be more socially financed rather than by companies that need to
+sell in the largest possible quantities at the highest possible price.
+The money is there; it is just used differently.
+
+We see how much money is available in every war, where billions are
+burned without hesitation. For the cost of just four hours of the
+Iraq war, we can launch a research satellite into
+space[fn:4hours]. NASA's entire budget is only 5% of the U.S.
+military budget. China now pays far more for the military than the
+U.S. pay for spaceflight.
+
+Or, closer to home, we see it in the massive financing of smartphone
+development. As a society, we choose to invest enormous amounts in
+computing development---because most people constantly buy new
+phones, leading to software developed mainly for the latest
+devices rather than for all devices sold in the last ten years.
+
+And smartphones instead of health is not the only example. If the
+energy transition were important to us, we would have stopped
+burning coal, oil, and gas ten years ago. We would have invested
+hundreds of billions in research and would have been much further
+ahead 10 years ago than we are today. We saw during the banking
+bailout that the needed money exists. If combating extremism and
+terrorism were important to us, then no child in the world would go
+hungry---also not in Germany or the U.S.. The money for that
+exists, too. It is just used differently.
+
+But none of this is happens. Because today's real problems are not
+technical but social in nature.

+
+How do we decide as a society where we want to go together? How do we
+know what is true, and how do we know what is important? How do we
+decide what we ourselves consider to be reality? And whom do we
+believe and trust?
+
+These are the truly difficult questions of our time—and they have been
+the important questions ever since humanity no longer had to fight for
+survival as a species every day.
+
+
+* Technology
+ :PROPERTIES:
+ :CUSTOM_ID: technology
+ :END:
+
+That does not mean that technology is irrelevant. This is
+evident in advancements in agriculture and medicine.
+Thanks to plows, vaccinations, and antibiotics, fewer people were
+needed to secure a community’s basic needs, freeing up workforce for
+education and research. And when guns and long spears were
+developed, nations no longer needed a knight caste trained from childhood
+to protect themselves from neighbors. The invention of the printing
+press facilitated the spread of ideas outside church structures.
+
+Technology shifts the framework of our decision-making. It changes
+how large certain groups must be to dominate societal discourse. If
+there are enough autonomous combat drones to control a country and a
+small group of people has control over them, then others in society
+can no longer make a difference, making their discourse irrelevant.
+The same applies when armed, self-proclaimed religious warriors
+force everyone to obey.
+
+Technology can increase or decrease the number of people who must
+collaborate to control society. For example the internet initially
+expanded this number before shrinking it again due to the dominance
+of public perception and personal communication by a few
+corporations[fn:informationcontrol].
+
+And due to climate change, we may push ourselves as a species so far
+out of our comfort zone that technology becomes the real challenge
+again---so that we do not know whether we, as individuals, as a
+society, and as a species, can survive in the long run.
+
+* Society
+ :PROPERTIES:
+ :CUSTOM_ID: society
+ :END:
+
+However, the decision which technology we use and which we allow or
+limit---or develop only defensively---is a social decision. While our
+understanding of technology improves and the number of natural
+scientists continues to rise, the social sciences stagnate:
+disciplines like psychology, sociology, and political science that
+explore how we make decisions in groups and how we can make better
+decisions. Despite the fact that technology---through Facebook,
+YouTube, Mastodon, and extensive communication analysis---has
+opened gold mines for social sciences, they receive little support.
+And that is a problem.
+
+And unfortunately, this too is social. As a society, we must recognize
+that the key to solving the major problems of our time lies in the
+social sciences. More precisely, in social sciences that serve society
+and the common good and everyone by helping to understand how people can
+make meaningful decisions in groups---also and especially when
+different interests are at odds. Sciences that search for (and
+communicate) ways to organize society such that more people can see
+which measures truly align with their interests and which other
+interests exist. How to make politics act more in the interest of the
+people it represents. And how to assess the consequences of their
+collective decisions---to understand what freedoms they really have
+and which choices would have side effects they would consider worse
+than their immediate benefits.
+
+* Enlightenment
+ :PROPERTIES:
+ :CUSTOM_ID: enlightenment
+ :END:
+
+This means we need a next step of enlightenment: the path of human
+society out of self-imposed immaturity. If we all understand who and
+what influences our decisions, we can also decide for ourselves to
+whom we want to grant this power. And that will be uncomfortable
+because, just like during individual enlightenment, immaturity is
+pleasant as long as we blind ourselves to its consequences. But as
+in individual enlightenment, the gain from responsibility and
+self-determination is far greater than the inconvenience of having
+to acknowledge reality.
+
+This step needs you---the one reading this text. Because while we
+can only take many of the important steps in a community,
+enlightenment always begins with individuals.
+
+It starts with questions:@@html:<a name="fragen" id="questions"></a>@@
