- moralestapia 2y ago>Evil is subjective. This is a meme that needs to die, for 99% of cases out there the line between good/bad is very clear cut. Dumb nihilists keep the world from moving forward with regards to human rights and lawful behavior.

- kelipso 2y agoPaperclip maximizing robot making the excuse that it's just maximizing paperclips, that's what it was designed to do, there's even a statute saying that robots must do only what it was designed to do, so it's not evil just amoral. Weird thing is for corporations, it's humans running the whole thing.

- josefx 2y ago> they’re amoral and are designed to maximize profits Isn't that a contradiction? Morality is fundamentally a sense of "right and wrong". If they reward anything that maximizes short term profit and punish anything that works against it then it appears to me that they have a simple, but clearly defined sense of morality centered around profit.
