Disclaimer: I am asking this for a college class. I need to find an example of AI being used unethically. I figured this would be one of the best places to ask. Maybe this could also serve as a good post to collect examples.

So what have you got?

Not exactly AI being used, rather developed, but Meta's torrenting 80tb of books and not seeding is egregious

The fact that so much training data is scraped without consent makes a lot of the popular LLMs unethical already in their development, yeah. And that in turn makes using the models unethical.

Using the models unethical...... or fair game?

Edit: but I share the sentiment. I avoid using AI like the plague, but because of the environmental impact.
