Talent being siphoned off into industry is an understandable and interesting issue. I didn't expect the shift to ethics at the end. I can't help but snort when someone from an advertising company talks about ethics. You're part of a machine making billions off of exploiting human psychology to push products and get people to click ads. She's maybe not wrong about the issues with AI.. but there are way bigger problems and lower hanging fruit than vague biases in machine models. It's like worrying about if the coffee beans in Google's coffee machines are ethically sourced At the end of the day, as exemplified by ad companies, people are gunna go make money ethically or not. If you could legally turn babies into cheeseburgers someone will do it. Engineers are not the right people to deal with ethics. That's what laws and regulations are for. You don't just hope and pray the engineers are nice people. That's a naiive way to operate society
