A Microsoft employee disrupted the company’s 50th anniversary event to protest its use of AI.
“Shame on you,” said Microsoft employee Ibtihal Aboussad, speaking directly to Microsoft AI CEO Mustafa Suleyman. “You are a war profiteer. Stop using AI for genocide. Stop using AI for genocide in our region. You have blood on your hands. All of Microsoft has blood on its hands. How dare you all celebrate when Microsoft is killing children. Shame on you all.”
Sources at Microsoft tell The Verge that shortly after Aboussad was ushered out of Microsoft’s event, she sent an email to a number of email distribution lists that contain hundreds or thousands of Microsoft employees. Here is Aboussad’s email in full:
It’s hard to find actual solutions when you’re ignoring reality :)
Go ahead, propose a long-term solution for dealing with hamas in gaza
Well, we could start, by not dropping bombs anymore on innocent civilians, which breeds terrorist organizations like hamas…or are we circling back to your ‘Isreal isnt doing anything wrong’ argument
I’m not saying israel is doing nothing wrong, but if they stop hamas will start restocking and attacking israel again, like they’ve done in the past
