  This paper concerns the ethics and morality of algorithms and computational
systems, and has been circulating internally at Facebook for the past couple
years. The paper reviews many Nobel laureates' work, as well as the work of
other prominent scientists such as Richard Dawkins, Andrei Kolmogorov, Vilfredo
Pareto, and John von Neumann. The paper draws conclusions based on such works,
as summarized in the title. The paper argues that the standard approach to
modern machine learning and artificial intelligence is bound to be biased and
unfair, and that longstanding traditions in the professions of law, justice,
politics, and medicine should help.
