Whenever a new sillicon valley start up hires an ethics board, be afraid. If Facebook and AI companies are anythin to go by, they'll use their recommendations as a to-do list, where every don't is a do.
@Rycochet I didn't pursue ethics as a career because the options were basically "teach ethics" or "be a corporate alibi".
"The board says your options are either murder poor people or grind all the homeless into slurry. Which is the most ethical option?"
Leads right into "Our ethicist advised us this was appropriate..."
