The fact that the community thoroughly inspects the ethics of these hyperscalers is interesting. Normally, these companies probably "violate ethical constraints" far more than 30-50% of the time, otherwise they wouldn't be so large[source needed]. We just don't know about it. But here, there's a control mechanism in the shape of inspecting their flagship push (LLMs, image generator for Grok, etc.), forcing them to improve. Will it lead to long term improvement? Maybe.

It's similar to how MCP servers and agentic coding woke developers up to the idea of documenting their systems. So a large benefit of AI is not the AI itself, but rather the improvements they force on "the society". AI responds well to best practices, ethically and otherwise, which encourages best practices.
