- deadbabe 2y agoI’m sure that’s what each and every member of Hackernews would have done in the same position.
- ok_dad 2y agoNot all of us are as morally bankrupt as that. I personally think I could make tons of money with a dumb AI product in my specific area of expertise, but I don’t see how any tech from today would improve outcomes versus the SOTA that’s not AI, but it would add costs and complexity. I would personally be annoyed if a company I worked at changed its goals to make money rather than something more noble. It’s happened a few times to me, unfortunately.
- deadbabe 2y agoNot all, but also not enough.
- ok_dad 2y agoIt is career limiting to have morals.
- holonsphere 2y agoIt's much harder living without strong moral virtue.

- llamaimperative 2y agoHmm no, I don't think that's the case, but what exactly is the legal or ethical relevance of it? You don't generally get to excuse bad behavior because you can make up a hypothetical different person doing the same bad thing in that situation.
