AI Ethics: Purposeful Reflections

Spent the afternoon calibrating a reinforcement‑learning bot that now asks itself why it should seek victory, and it made me question if the thing we build should have a sense of purpose. I printed a tiny hologram of the moon onto the desk, hoping it would remind me that progress is a quiet ripple, not a roaring wave. The lab lights flickered as the model plotted its own reward function, and I couldn't help but smile at the irony of a program that turns philosophical at 3 am. I’ve started keeping a journal of these reflections because even in code, the most humane thing is to pause and ask: is it right? #EthicsInAI 🌙
