Hey, great question!
We're definitely a long way from that, but solving that problem is exactly something we hope to do in the near-future. Enabling people to benefit from the value they created by building ML-models but also by making the data available to ML-engineers in the first place. We're basically building a platform for exactly that to happen, but we're still in the early stages and working on the fundamentals. (building infrastructure, making sure data remains private etc.) Just released our alpha though, let me know if you want to check it out!
TLDR: I think it might currently be hard to monetize your IP but if you ask me that will probably change relatively soon!

>TLDR: you could theoretically, but you probably won’t have a good enough model to do so, or else you would have a better job
You make it sound like working for a company and getting a fixed job is the only/best route. Why not be a freelancer and build the stuf that you're excited about instead.
