"It’s also a problem baked into the very structure of a corporation, which exists as a “person” so that the actual people who own it can’t be held accountable for its actions. Which is an ongoing and catastrophic injustice for society, because you can’t send a corporation to prison no matter what harm it’s done." https://secret.works/blog/jehzkkl4jl09scazuo5a6his9zbqu1
AI is Morally Bankrupt — ANDREA PHILLIPS // secret.works

So far I’ve been making the case against AI with cold, hard numbers: error rates, bottles of water evaporated, dollars invested. Now it’s time to move into a more subjective — and yet to my mind, far more important — set of considerations: the moral and ethical implications of AI and how we use it.

@lilithsaintcrow Only shareholders are exempt from liability. In every common-law jurisdiction, except perhaps USA, courts have accepted the right to “pierce the corporate veil” & hold the corporation’s “guiding minds” liable for misconduct. (Jargon in quotation marks.) All it takes is a responsible prosecutorial branch to see that, if a corporation acts criminally, the CEO and board of directors should go to jail. Australia does it already.
