Thank you for being open about the hours and stress levels of this kind of job. I started my college career studying game design, and nobody ever mentioned it. It was like the administration actively avoided discussing any of the negative sides of the industry.

You would be amazed how long it takes people to figure out that they're trans. A lot of them know something is wrong, but they don't know what it is. It requires a lot of introspection to connect the dots, and quite a few people don't figure it out until after they're married with kids.

It has already been demonstrated that people will not responsibly apply machine learning AI (some examples listed here), either intentionally or because they aren't aware that it isn't a perfectly accurate system. In light of this, as the person creating this type of technology, do you feel an ethical responsibility to apply ethics while you still have control over it?

I realize this is a fairly pointed question. I ask because I was very interested in going into AI research while I was in college, but the more I learned what people did with this type of technology, the more contributing to it deeply violated my own code of ethics.
