What is you point? The fact that humans have shit ethics does not mean we need not address ethics in AI. Especially if the AI is then used to justify the biases.

And that comparison is completely ridiculous.

Right, like we extensively worked out the ethics of automobiles before we allowed them.

Can you imagine if we let cars contribute to inequity by allowing rich people to own them and not poor people? Or if it was possible to just aim a car at people without the self-driving stopping you.
