there is no genuine AI ethics conversation happening at any company currently describing itself as having a genuine AI ethics conversation
@Daojoan I didn't think any of them did AI ethics? Thought it was all "AI safety", so anything short of ending humanity counts as a win
@Daojoan ethics is about compliance to a code of law. Maybe to a code of industry or cultural norms. if you want right vs wrong, you need morals and philosophy conversations. And you can prepend your choices, your behavior, your purpose with the tempting tech of the moment. Web, mobile, AI, surveillance, nanotech, biotech... ethics. Yet the morality questions are all the same. Which companies have killed a product because it's wrong, an error? vs too risky or too costly or too brand damaging?
@Daojoan Mine pretends to. It's all bundled up in civic responsibility and nice sounding rhetoric but it's all still garbage.
@Daojoan Which pretty much aligns with corporate ethics typically being a PR vehicle rather than strategic guardrail.
