Even if/when we do, or die trying, it appears we will need oil for non-fuel petroleum products (at least temporarily) [1]. The process for extracting and transforming that oil should be as efficient as possible. Therefore, providing ML tech to oil companies is not necessarily "bad". However...
Time and time again, we are reminded that we should not ever leave morality up to businessmen. Ethics cannot be outsourced. Get out and vote for leaders who will keep tech from being used in damaging ways.
