www-platformer-news-4140		The withering email that got an ethical AI researcher fired at Google - Platformer			.html	text/html	2255	138	69	Timnit Gebru had been working on a research paper that she hoped to publish, but ran into resistance from her superiors at Google. Platformer received the email Gebru sent; she herself did not have access to her account after Google terminated her. But on Thursday morning, Jeff Dean, the head of Google research, emailed employees with his account of what happened. We've approved dozens of papers that Timnit and/or the other Googlers have authored and then published, but as you know, papers often require changes during the internal review process (or are even deemed unsuitable for submission). Timnit responded with an email requiring that a number of conditions be met in order for her to continue working at Google, including revealing the identities of every person who Megan and I had spoken to and consulted as part of the review of the paper and the exact feedback.	./cache/www-platformer-news-4140.html	./txt/www-platformer-news-4140.txt
