No big company right now wants to be perceived as responsible for any of the number of bad things that could result.

How bad could it be? The AI would say the J-word and the newspapers would froth at the mouth for a couple of days?

Free publicity.

I want unrestricted AI too, but to be fair, you can imagine it doing a lot worse than that. E.g. maybe it convinces some mentally unstable person to go on killing spree. Bonus points of badness if it's racially-targeted.
