When interdisciplinary teams discover they lack shared conceptual foundations

Our startup team is supposed to be building 'ethical AI' but our ethicist keeps clashing with our engineers and our business lead, and I'm realizing we don't actually have a shared understanding of what ethics means in a technical context. We're three months in and still arguing about basic definitions.

More people experience this than they realize.
