Yes, just like Yudkowsky and Altman are focusing on bullshit conceptual, theoretical and absurd risks as a smoke screen to what real risks and real harms will and are occurring right now, for regulatory capture and more funding for their bullshit non profit research orgs, so too do most AI ethics researchers.

I'd say they're not even hiding how useless they are. Hell, one of the main criticisms of internal PaLM was that it was not progressive enough and didn't toe the Silicon Valley Democrat party line and thus was racist.
