Folks expect humans to be unethical, and [at least try to] put in checks and balances for it. When it’s an AI, on the other hand, lots of folks are too computer-illiterate to treat it as anything but infallible magic.

It’s the fact that ethical people can easily create unethical AI. The core problem is reinforcing biases/stereotypes in the data without realizing. Obviously there are other concerns about purposefully doing unethical stuff, but the real issue is that AI/ML just learns from what it’s given.
Examples range from cameras that think most people from Asia have their eyes closed digitaltrends.com/…/facial-recognition-software-p… to things like Amazon reinforcing gender hiring biases reuters.com/…/us-amazon-com-jobs-automation-insig…
Ultimately even when built “correctly” AI can be extremely dangerous.

Allegedly you can bring a bad human actor to justice, though we typically do not.

No ethics based lapses.

Then the only recourse is to create ethical constraints. Challenging, but possible, even with current LLM technology.
