This sounds like the "only following orders" argument.
_If_ developers _collectively_ were to quit jobs that don't line up with their morals and ethics, we _might_ see a change. I'm not saying this is an easy decision to make, and I definitely don't want to judge someone who decides to take a higher paying job, but there's potential here to shift the direction AI is taking.
I mean, I do agree with the only following orders part. But I guess we humans are nuanced. We aren't logical but emotional beings.
You are saying its not easy to leave a job? That's so understating it
Imagine a family where the father has to worry that food might not be on their young daughter's table because he was 'logical', I guess, I don't want to be logical in such scenario where my loved ones suffer because of some greater good which might not even get to fruition anyway. (Stopping ai, in my pessimistic point of view, it won't)

Have you seen the job market recently.

Perhaps the union could take a stand.
