I appreciate you sharing this @le_roux_nicolas! I knew this to be the case despite never having worked at Google. I even know some researchers go with the "ask for forgiveness, not permission" route.
Inconsistent application of rules is a powerful weapon. 1/6https://twitter.com/le_roux_nicolas/status/1334601960972906496 …

It was clear to me mid-way through grad school that I can't do the kind of work I'd like at places like Google. My 3rd year, I backed out of a Google internship. It was a hard decision and one that was met with severe skepticism by many in my dept. 2/6

Later, once I hit my stride as a researcher, I got another recruiting note to which I responded with a "please remove me from all your recruiting lists." They asked for feedback on why and I obliged. 3/6pic.twitter.com/8tMJKx88K5

What is going on right now is terrible. But, I hope it is also an opportunity to have open conversations about whether there's any place for ethical AI research within corporations that are incentivized to do the exact opposite. 4/6

As academics, I hope we also reflect more critically on what doors we open for our students. In grad school, I tried hard to do internships in the public sector, but neither I nor my faculty mentors had good connections, while there were many pathways to big tech internships. 5/6

Within the U.K. unfortunately there isn’t much of a connection between academia and industry. In the more prestigious universities student aren’t a all prepared for industry. The focus is on academic prestige and proving one “can solve complex problems under time pressure”.
