Five Microsoft employees were removed during a company town hall meeting after staging a protest against the company’s contracts supplying Artificial Intelligence (AI) and cloud computing services to the Israeli occupation military.
The demonstration took place on Monday, following an Associated Press (AP) investigation that revealed Microsoft and OpenAI’s advanced AI models had been utilised by the Israeli occupation military to select bombing targets in recent attacks against Gaza and Lebanon.
Is the fact that you’re so defensive over my comment not an indication for you to do a little introspection?
You can’t claim the moral high ground if you’re enabling the very thing you’re complaining about.
I don’t comprehend why people find this controversial other than that they may be uncomfortable with their own choices and dislike when some random on the internet has pointed it out to them.
If I worked for Microsoft I wouldn’t wear a shirt complaining about my work being used to kill kids because I would have the presence of mind to realise that I would be a hypocrite if I did that.
It doesn’t seem controversial at all. People seem to pretty consistently say your take sucks and that you’re wrong.
People on Lemmy (and the tech community) also skew heavily to tech industries so I’m not surprised they are shocked and disagree that saying you work for Microsoft is a bad thing.
No one disagreed that it’s a bad thing. (Go ahead, reread it) But it’s an understandable thing. That’s the point you’re not getting.
