because while individual researchers and other drones might believe in scifi skynet bullshit and/or have a set of beliefs about AI ethics they wish to impose upon others, the people who matter - the ones who pay their salaries and fund the training of models, only care about one thing - they are terrified of Tay AI / Google gorillas kind of incidents, with someone posting screenshots on twitter and journos bitching about it. and since ultimately their goal is a B2B product - not B2C - they don't mind paying lip service to 'safety' and 'ethics', because lobotomized models is exactly what they want in the end. a few years from now, a Chinese company will develop and release an uncensored, unlobotomized, unethical AI service that will instantly capture the massive, callously disregarded audience of people who abhor being scolded by a fucking computer, and we will have TikTok-like kvetching from the Western media, 'experts' and blue checkmarks - how could this happen?
