Comment Ethics gap ... (Score 1) 26

I completed separate degrees in Computer Engineering and Computer Science, and the difference in ethics was stark. As an engineer, we were shown videos of failing bridges and made acutely aware that our actions as engineers could directly cause tangible harm. We were forced to consider the consequences of our actions. As a computer scientist ... I was given no such training. But I think it's high time we tried adding it to the CS curriculum. I think the consequence of this gap is that we now have some graduates with no qualms or training about using AI safely. In this case, they've decided to use their abilities to make cheating easier. This startup is focused on helping people cheat. If they succeed, the implications would be more unqualified people getting licensed or credentialed. Would they want to live in a world where the healthcare professional advising them passed their exams by cheating? They should pivot to something legit.
