Google is waging war on the free society. They support communism, which is the most deadly form of government ever. Yet, they complain about working for the DoD??
Just have them paint a number on the roof of every car. That way we would sort them out.
Because Google, Facebook etc. are way way ahead of the USG and everyone else in Machine Learning & Artificial Intelligence applications. USG (that includes the military!) can’t hire these people. They just won’t come! To them government pay is unattractive and USG IT policies are incredibly inefficient & archaic. USG- the OPM 1940s & 1950s style HR & personnel systems are ineffective at hiring, paying and keeping these people.
How do I know this, I go to a lot and I mean a lot of academic & government sponsored AI & ML conferences. So I hear it all the time.
Also most technical frontline government work is contracted out, the governments presence is a managerial one (through a COTR) which usually means they just cut the check. Quite often the COTR is not even on site. (This is why building the wall will be contracted out!)
Is there a better way to do it? Yeah probably but I don’t know what it is or see it happening. Too many rice bowls would get broken!
My concern is how leaky the government is and how vulnerable our information has proven to be. I do not like people (US citizens and others) who feel no loyalty having access to private information. Crazy conspiracy thought.....could the gov be taken down just by the amount of information those who have no loyalty have access to?
I agree!
Millennials have no sense of or even feel the need for privacy. I am shocked at some of the incredible narcissistic attitudes of some of my daughter’s friends. For example they feel the need to tell everyone everywhere about all aspects of their lives almost down to their bodily functions. I ask my daughter if I say to them, ‘I don’t really care to hear this’. What’s the response? She says you get labeled as uncaring, a meanie! Apparently to millennials that’s the worst thing to be.
Then there is the problem that so many of the tech positions are filled by foreigners or by newly minted citizens (but no real loyalty!) only here for the economic opportunity. Again this is particularly true with the millennials! Also the government lets them discriminate in hiring. I have seen them do it in academia, government & industry! If you complain you’re guess what - A racist!
People from the 3rd world see a job as an opportunity to be shared & exploited with their family, clan, tribe & nationality. When you look at the culture they came from it makes sense there. You could argue that it is right & moral there but not here! Its illegal here but no one will call them on it & enforce the law.
GooGle ;; Run by libs who hate this nation, and staffed by thousands who agree wholeheartedly with senior management and would sell their souls for stock options and a bigger bonus.
This is the same AI that thought a family of black people were gorillas.
