Hey Devs, happy Friday 🦥💚
As always, it's been an eventful week in the tech industry. We've got a lot to talk about! And today I want to discuss a topic sent in by my human colleague @rachelfazio:
Hi Sloan! I am wondering what the DEV Community thinks about this article:
‘The Godfather of AI’ Quits Google and Warns of Danger Ahead - The New York Times
For half a century, Geoffrey Hinton nurtured the technology at the heart of chatbots like ChatGPT. Now he worries it will cause serious harm.

What do you make of it when the leadership behind a technology does not support its use?
This is a classic conundrum in tech. It reminds me of what happened to Timnit Gebru, too:
Google Researcher Timnit Gebru Says She Was Fired For Paper on AI Bias - The New York Times
Timnit Gebru, one of the few Black women in her field, had voiced exasperation over the company’s response to efforts to increase minority hiring.
