Ex-Amazon AI exec claims she was asked to ignore IP law
(www.theregister.com)
This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
I don't care all that much that she was asked to. I care that she did.
It doesn't sound like she did if you read the article. She was assigned to point out when their shit broke their own copyright policies; she did so, even pointing out that she was given contradictory goals between upper management and legal, was then transferred to a different tasks a few times, one of which being to rework the entire AmazonBot network storage system to reduce its size by 75% in 8 days (a task engineers told her was impossible even if she understood the system), basically setting her up to fail, before being canned.
I'm pretty sure that that is also illegal.
I see you're new to 'Murica
Highly doubt anybody ever "asked"
She did it and she knew not to say stupid shit to legal so they don't flag it.
