I majored in Philosophy. Though I wouldn't want to be an AI ethics consultant for one of these big companies because I imagine that whatever I write down would have to preserve profits (first and foremost) and then gaslight everyone into thinking it's all perfectly ethical and okay and no one (including mother earth) is being harmed in the process.
You don't need an ethicist if you don't have ethics! /s
I just wish we could put this dumb sentient AI stuff to bed for now. Congrats, you guys built the most powerful (and wasteful) auto-complete. It's not sentient and your marketing doesn't have to be hyperbolic lies.
