Companies are getting desperate to show AI adoption as right now the numbers just don’t add up.
Not surprisingly companies are willing to get into bed with more and more questionable use cases if it helps show some desperately needed AI adoption revenue.

All compute companies say they don't have enough compute to meet demands. Why do you think there isn't enough AI adoption to justify the investment?

“Demand” is mostly their training of models, which they’ve yet to demonstrate is a profitable business.

And, in a post-ZIRP era, guess where all of the easy money for growth is coming from? Yup, deficit-funded defense spending.

Thanks.

Sounds sketchy as hell but the article suggests its for unclassified work, like "drafting meeting notes, creating action items, and breaking large projects into step-by-step plans".
I think I'd be more annoyed if my government weren't using tools to make BS work more efficient.

War is a racket. It always has been. It is possibly the oldest, easily the most profitable, surely the most vicious. It is the only one international in scope. It is the only one in which the profits are reckoned in dollars and the losses in lives. A racket is best described, I believe, as something that is not what it seems to the majority of the people. Only a small "inside" group knows what it is about. It is conducted for the benefit of the very few, at the expense of the very many. Out of war a few people make huge fortunes - Smedley D. Butler
...is as true now as ever.

Health care didn’t exist in his day. War’s the second most profitable now.
This should surprise no one. A CIA-backed VC was one of the first investors of Google. Big tech will always serve the powers that be. Employees that think their letters of appeal will do anything live in a fantasy land. That’s not how the real world works.

"“We’re starting with unclassified because that’s where most of the users are, and then we’ll get to classified and top secret,” Michael said in an interview, adding that talks with Google over using the agents on the classified cloud are underway."

If (IF!) the U.S. government is a corrupt authoritarian regime does it matter what services Google was providing?
When is the point we see that boycotting these companies that are helping kill, lets say 100 little girls with a tomahawk missiles, is the very least we can do?

Google to help staff the Pentagon with sycophantic incompetent sociopaths! Hooray!
Will I be the only one concerned that amplifying bullshit might run contrary to the mission of the national defense

At this point, the employees at Google who signed that open letter might as well call it quits and leave. Google already has military contracts the Pentagon previously, so this is not surprising at all.
