MIT on Googles Ethics

This has to be one of the best articles i've ever read about ethics. The ironic title is a great prelude to the suggestions they give in the article.

All of the comments in this article tear Googles team apart. Before reading this I wasn't really aware that there were that many issues with the ethics of google, which is shocking since it is such a widely used platform in todays society.

Its rather alarming that so many people can use a social media or information platform and not know what information is being taken or how it being used. Its scary to think that there is so much about us on the internet that we cannot control.

One of my favorites comments was "first acknowledge the elephant in the room: Google's Al principals." I really loved how MIT had no fear absolutely telling Google, which is such a large company, telling them exactly what they're going wrong.

10/10 article, totally recommend reading!
