Because most people in tech never took a philosophy course or an ethics course and think that tech is obviously a good for the world and that there are no downsides to advancing tech. So any efforts that try to apply ethics to it are overreaching, ignorant, and futile in the face of the good that is tech!

Tech demo + theres the ability to provide feedback right at the answer interface if using the UI.

Provide feedback in the negative, a brief explanation, and move on with your day. It will improve with feedback, not with whinging into the void.
