Among certain men, Elizabeth Holmes is a target of an unusual hatred.   She has 
been held to a higher standard than the everyday Silicon Valley startup CEO.   
Among the psychological features of such a person - in the job description -- 
is the ability to grossly exaggerate the maturity and promise of their 
companies' technologies.   When it comes to AI Ethics, the concern seems just 
as arbitrary.   Why would we hold these stochastic parrots to a higher standard 
than their training material?

I would echo both your amusement and non-positivity.

When it comes to AI ethics, I doubt that much improvement over Asimov's Three 
Laws of Robotics (and the Zero-th Law invented by the Robots themselves) is 
possible or necessary.
