I think Google is hobbled by this belief. They place their "ethics" above doing well in the market. This is evidenced by the degradation of their search results to prevent the spread of misinformation. Because of this they drop

It seems like 80% of generated images from these AI things I see on forums and facebook are of pretty women. Not that I don't like pretty women... but it's just so obvious. Is this a harbinger of the future? Everyone stays in th

That's why I'd imagine they have rules about habitable planets in the galactic federation. You can't just go around landing on habitable planets and turning them into overpopulated toxic dumps after 300 years and repeating t
