Do CS programs not include a class on ethics? : cscareerquestions | Codecel thinks other codecels cared about their ethics classes

!codecels The only thing i learned in ethics class is that I reject the ethics of my peers and countrymen

So I've been in the industry for 7 years now but had a degree in social sciences and later attended a bootcamp before getting my first job.

In light of current events, I'm just puzzled that there are engineers that are so willing to deploy their skills to achieve nefarious ends. We have the ability to impact the world in major ways with our knowledge and expertise, I would assume that CS programs would understand this and require course work on the moral implications of technology. Even in cases where what we are doing is technically legal. We are not mere cowtools for the business of others, this should be kept in mind.

Yea and that's why instead of testing your fancy new AI on fed databases to find freeloaders and wastes of money you're bitching on reddit

I take an annual ethics class, have for probably 15 years. Somehow I still purposely overcharge and under deliver.

One of these days it's gonna click though.
