Yes. I don’t want my effort to be dedicated to death and destruction. Imagine you’re the guy who designed the iconic Tomahawk cruise missile. You can’t mistake that profile. Every time you see or hear about one of those things being launched you know there’s a good chance many people are going to die. Who wants that on their conscience?
There’s a difference, in my opinion, between designing a weapon and just being a generic worker at the company.
As a generic worker, the end result isn’t any different whether it was you or someone else. For example, I don’t think a guy who works at a Tesla factory could be considered responsible if the self driving malfunctions and kills someone. He might have directly contributed to the car that got built, but if he didn’t work that job the car would have still been made and the tragedy would still have happened.
