If that's your biggest concern with AI, that's a perfect example of why we need ethics teams in AI companies.

All of these companies are building towards AGI, the complex ethics both of how an AGI is used and what rights it might have as an intelligent being go well beyond racist slurs.

Certainly but have any of the AI ethics teams at these big companies done any work on those bigger ethical issues, or is it all language control?

I don't know enough about the teams unfortunately. My gut says no and that they're more PR than AI ethics, but that might be unfairly cynical.
