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.

Don't mean to be rude, but humans don't think like that. Machines do.

Most humans don't think ethically but morally. That does not mean that none do.

Replying to @dwindlinghandle @mmolloi
Ethics is an attempt to rationally reconcile conflicts of interest under conditions of shared purpose. Morals merely represent a preference for values and policies, and don't have to be consistent, rational or principled. Most people feel it's sufficient if they are shared.
