A former employee of #Microsoft speaks up about the company’s hypocrisy. Although Microsoft committed to fight #climateChange, amongst others by the usage of #AI, it sells this very same technology and custom applications and infrastructure based on it to #fossilFuel companies like #Shell, #ExxonMobil, #Chevron or #Halliburton …
Even #Google refuses to build custom applications that would support the #oilIndustry !!
