Just got email from Sundar telling us that (paraphrasing) building AI is way more important than worrying about genocide, so everyone should pipe down.
Fuck, and I cannot stress this enough, him and this company.
Wow I just read the email, and the tone is more like “you’re gonna genocide and you’re gonna like it bitch”. The irony of linking to the anti-discrimination and harassment policies is the most “saying the quiet part out loud” reminder that those policies, and all of HR, only exist to protect the company, not the workers.
