Background: After workers demanded the company drop a Pentagon contract called Project Maven in 2018, Google introduced the AI Principles, guidelines to ensure ethical use of Google’s AI. Google, however, continued taking military contracts, and when they could no longer deny what their AI was being used for, they opted to drop the principles rather than the contracts.

Background: Protesters gathered outside the UN’s “AI for Good” Summit in Geneva to condemn the very companies sponsoring it — Google, Microsoft, Amazon, and others — for simultaneously supplying the AI and cloud infrastructure reportedly used in military operations in Gaza. Big Tech sees no difference between “Ethical AI” and war crimes. #techlash #Fired50 #NoTechForApartheid

Hi friends! I'm going to be cohosting a livestream event on Saturday April 18th from 9am - 6pm (Pacific Time)!
Event info and RSVP can be found here:
https://fired50.org/techlash/As you may have seen or heard, 50 Google workers were fired 2 years ago after a sit-in protest at Google, including myself. Now we're taking Google to court.
We're expecting a long legal battle, so we put together a 2-year anniversary livestream fundraiser event.
https://chuffed.org/project/128294-support-the-fired-50-google-worker-legal-defense-fundWe've invited a variety of guests to speak, including researchers, unionists, activists, an author, and Kshama Sawant (former Seattle City Council). Full schedule will be on the event page soon.
I would greatly appreciate anyone who can watch, donate, or spread the word. We have a post on Instagram if you're on there:
