I’d love it if instead of being the next FAANG, having worked at an AI company becomes a scarlet letter both in and out of the tech industry. It’s easy to concentrate these issues on founders and execs, but Altman isn’t the one building the beast.
Contributing to these systems beyond this point should be seen as a massive failure of character. Stigmatizing to the point that they have to scrub their socials, lie about work history, and hide it from future friends or partners.
One can dream. Society does not have the integrity for this, unfortunately.
I don't think integrity is the reason for it. If you don't see it as an irredeemable moral issue for people to have worked at AI companies, then it is not a matter of integrity that you don't shun them.
Or, you might consider it a moral issue but may not believe that shunning is not the way to achieve a positive result. Also not a failure of integrity.
