The intuition that machines cannot be as ethical as humans is likely incorrect. Ethics is the systematic resolution of conflicts of interest under conditions of shared purpose. Ethics is not irrational. There is no reason to assume that machines cannot be more ethical than us.

It's not the machines. It's the corporations that use them. Corporations are like animals in Darwinian competition, and animals don't have ethics.

My ontology is orthogonal to yours: people, animals, corporations and computers are machines. People are animals. People, animals and corporations are evolutionary agents. Machines have ethics if they implement mechanisms for identifying rules to negotiate cooperative conflicts.
