Meet Google's Genocide Czar: Thomas Kurian!

Google Cloud's CEO is an industry leader in the deployment of AI for occupation & genocide—providing cutting-edge cloud computing tech via Project Nimbus to Israel's military, & enabling them to massacre hundreds of thousands of Palestinians in Gaza

Worker groups like @notechforapartheid.bsky.social and No Azure For Apartheid have been pressuring Microsoft for months or years on issues like these.
Microsoft tries to silence dissent and make workers feel powerless--but they aren't.

Every employee who was fired for standing up is saving lives.
Microsoft will no longer allow Israel to use its cloud services to enable its mass surveillance of occupied Palestinians – "the first known case of a US technology company withdrawing services provided to the Israeli military since the beginning of its war on Gaza"

I’m joining hundreds of other #Google workers fasting today in solidarity with people in Gaza who are being forcibly starved. Mutual aid is part of this weekly campaign. Here is one way you can help today. Follow Molly’s incredible work to continue to find ways to help Palestinians directly.
I’m sharing a Palestinian account every day and today is Hala. Hala is only 16 years old and is a very popular singer in Gaza (you should check her out www.instagram.com/hala_e_omar?...). Her and her family are being forced to flee Gaza City and live in tents in the South. They need help ❤️

AI continues to perform disappointingly in the commercial market. Musk wants to make the government run on AI, which would save the industry and marry its existence to the inner workings of the federal system. There, AI's poor performance (as in, screwing people over) would be a feature, not a bug.

all LLM AI is intrinsically fascist. both the process of creating it is fascist, and it's express purpose is as well. it's mass scale violation of the working class in order to commit erasure, replacement, and round about enslavement of the workers for the sake of their own destruction & even this.

In 1948, Zionist militias established a Jewish state on Palestinian land, instituted a military occupation over Palestinians, and over decades stole increasingly large swaths of Palestinian land to control and mandated a system of Jewish legal supremacy — apartheid.
