One hits the mark.
ZH covers a mini-mutiny by Google employees who don't want to work on military AI projects because Trump. Military projects were OK with Google employees when the military had the Obama brand.
One commenter hits the EXACT truth:
I doubt the management will risk it by doing it secretly. But the military might find ways to reverse engineer whatever Google produces.
That's how the system works. Deepstate always does its own research internally, but likes to watch what outsiders are doing so it can copy and reverse-engineer their ideas. The web was developed as a constant spy channel for academia and industry. Researchers and executives communicate via email, and NSA picks up their ideas and plans long before a product or journal article appears. NSA can then frontrun the shares to make money, and frontrun the research to make evil.
Google and Facebook and Apple are massive extensions of the spy channel, picking up every idea and thought and event in everyone's lives. Wet dream for spies and tyrants. Orwell's telescreen had blind spots where Winston could write his thoughts on paper. An iPhone has no blind spots or missing senses. It gathers your location, your mood, your gestures, your temperature, everything.
