Lawyers start out as humans but something about going into law school and then private practice, and feeding them after midnight turns them into... something else entirely.

Arguably the same is true for some software engineers. One minute they're a good friend that you respect, next thing you know they're building killbots or AI non consensual porn generators or surveillance platforms that are illegal for government agencies to operate. Perhaps it happens more often to lawyers?
