You're very much wrong. Two of the key tennets of libertarianism is that your rights end where my nose begins and the respect of property rights . Your AI bot is causing problems for me, then you should be compensating me for the damage or other expense you caused. But the AI bros think they should be able to take anything they want whenever they want without compensation, and they'll use every single shady behavior they can to make that happen. In other words, they're robber barrons.
