This is Hacker News.

Hacker has at least three distinct meanings: deeply knowledgeable software developers, shallowly knowledgeable programmers, and people who break into computer security systems. The 'Hacker' in 'Hacker News' refers to the first of this. I suspect you think it means the third.

There's no ethical dilemma here, so no, it isn't ethical dilemma news.

Nor is it really news. It's a bit more magical version of Danny Dunn and the Homework Machine from 1958 - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Danny_Dunn_and_the_Homework_Ma... .
