Tech giant Microsoft has reportedly been working on artificial intelligence research with a Chinese military-run university, recent reports claim that the research could be used for both surveillance and censorship.
Tech giant Microsoft has been working with a Chinese military-operated university on research relating to A.I. which could be used for surveillance and censorship practices, according to the Financial Times. Between March and November, three scientific studies were published which were co-written by academics from the Microsoft Research Asia in Beijing. Other researchers involved in the studies had close affiliations to China’s National University of Defense Technology (NUDT).
Senior fellow at the New America think tank and China tech expert Samm Sacks commented on the possible issues of collaboration between Microsoft and the Chinese military-run university, stating that the recently published papers raised “red flags because of the nature of the technology, the author affiliations, combined with what we know about how this technology is being deployed in China right now.” Sacks added: “The [Chinese] government is using these technologies to build surveillance systems and to detain minorities [in Xinjiang].”

Thanks Microsoft.
This could result in the Red Screen Of Death!
Ms.Dos should be locked up !
Communist AI = Skynet !
MICROSOFT needs a little humiliation. This should be against US espionage laws.
I can't let you do that, Dave.
The tech giants yearn for the schizophrenic commie chinese model of governance. A commie elite that harnesses capitalism.
Wouldn’t mind betting there are tech bosses spying for China. Not for dollars. But for political beliefs
As much as I’d love to dump on Microsoft here, and I will to an extent, the people who really deserve to be prosecuted are our past presidents and department heads that allowed this sort of relationship to flourish without any concern whatsoever.
It’s not just Obama and Clinton either.
Bingo! It started with Papa Bush who is feeling very hot where he is at, but it was Nixon who opened the doors.
Yet the SJW faggots In Microsoft and Google will complain and sabotage any work done with the US military.
You know, I don’t like the claim that Nixon opened the door.
Fact is, Nixon would NEVER have transferred state secrets, national defense secrets, or technology transfers to China.
He would have seen this as treason.
He cozened up to China in order to offset Russia in the cold war.
Nixon didn’t hand off patent information. He didn’t give them space tech. He didn’t push insane trade policies that would displace tens of millions of manufacturing workers in the U. S.
China was a closed society. We had not idea what was going on in the nation much of the time. After the opening up of relations, it was a lot easier to keep tabs on China, where it stood on things, and what dynamics were taking place in the nation in pretty much real time.
