If your work has "impact", then by definition it is changing the world. You must then ask *how* the world is changing -- in which direction does your impact point? Who benefits and who loses out? Technological impact always has a moral direction.
I should add, the need for ethics awareness arises from the *applications* of AI. If your work is very theoretical, it generally does not have any materialized impact, and its potential impact could go in any direction.
Likewise with regulations -- they should target *applications*, not research or technology in an abstract sense.
It's pretty sweet how we've fielded a bunch of information systems that have already reshaped our society without bothering to ask if it was a good idea.
That's a bit too easy. Any theoretical work which is a breakthrough in a field is very likely to have as much positive as negative applications. You empower others, you got a responsability in what is done with your work.
There's no way to define "very theoretical" term precisely. And I have yet to see a positive impact of AI applications in general. The community boasts with breakthroughs in medicine, but the society gets microtargeting, social credit evaluation and surveillance.
As 7th-graders, we used to write boilerplate essays on- "Is Science Boon or Bane?". We went over disease eradication, atom bombs, lengthening of lives, chemical warfare, etc. But all of those boilerplate essays concluded by saying- "Science in itself is not a boon or a bane." 1/3
"Only the applications of science can be blamed or praised" Simple stuff. 2/3
