A top artificial intelligence executive at Apple is leaving the company over its return-to-office policy, according to a report.
The news comes as Apple orders all corporate employees to return to the office for three days per week — a stricter policy than Big Tech competitors like Meta, Google and Amazon, which are allowing at least some employees to work remotely forever.

Work ethic has been lost in this country.
Not my job.
Good. Let someone who needs a job and is dedicated to helping

Not a prob. He’ll continue to work for the sludge and CCP remotely

visit various locations to be effective in the position.
Each job has it’s own dynamics. Some can easily be done
at home. I had an experience and found myself distracted
there.
People are different. The requirements for jobs are also.
I understand where you are coming from.
He got a BS and MS in Computer Science from Stanford, and a PhD in Machine Learning at the University of Montreal.
He is very employable.
That was part of the plan from the start.I’ve also read that church attendance is still way down from before the virus panic. That,too,gladdens the hearts of everyone at Rat Party Headquarters...for obvious reasons.
