      Lot of talk in recent days about tech ethics. I want to talk about what ethics is and isn't in other fields.

      When we talk about the ethics of tech, a lot of people flock to things like the trolley problem. This is utterly irrelevant.

      Tech works really hard to try to craft ethical dilemmas that don't exist in the real world. This is because it wants to derail.

      Ethical dilemmas--which arise when two valid ethical frameworks collide--are relatively rare. Tech doesn't have many of these.

      Instead, what it has is "profit vs. ethics". "We will make less money if we act ethically." But revenue is not an ethical concern!

      The tech industry just has a lack of ethics. That's it. And lots of folks trying to craft a trolley problem to mask their accountability.

          In fields that also address this problem, such as medicine, we approach ethical concerns with various tools: review boards, certifications

          A lawyer can get disbarred, a doctor can lose their board certification, a professor can lose research funding.

          Tell me: where is the equivalent of that in tech?

          So when I talk about needing to teach ethics, what I refer to is training by case study on the importance of accountability.

          And not some philosophical gibberish that someone will try to throw lambda calculus at. Ethics isn't a field to solve.

          It's like growing crops: you have to keep doing it, keep learning, because there's never a time we don't need them.
