Google is ready to give one -year paid permission to prevent artificial intelligence employees from participating in competitors.

The competition in the field of artificial intelligence may now have started to influence artificial intelligence professionals. Allegedly Google, He pays for these professionals to prevent some artificial intelligence professionals from participating in competitors.

According to the information shared by Business InsiderGoogle’s artificial intelligence arm DeepMindSome artificial intelligence professionals in the United Kingdom have signed agreements not to compete to compete, which prevents competitors from the work of up to a year.

Some of them will be paid during this time to coincide with a long paid leave period. In short, the company continues to pay them during my non -competitive period. However, according to shared information, researchers may feel as if they are out of rapid progress in the field of artificial intelligence.

In fact, the Federal Trade Commission in the US (FTC) banned many competition -oriented agreements last year. However, these prohibitions do not affect Deepmind’s center in London. Google Deepmind said that he used the provisions of not competing on these allegations as “selective”.

We can say that Deepmind has been on the agenda for a while. Last month Microsoft’s Vice President of Artificial Intelligence Nando de FreitasIn the face of the difficulty of avoiding the provisions of Deepmind employees with a sharing in X, he explained how they reached him in “desperation”:

Every week, one of you asks me how to get rid of your notice periods and not to compete. You also want me to work because your manager says this is the way to promote, but I’m distributing the subject. Please do not reach me. Instead, reach each other. Your managers are responsible for this. Talk to them.

First of all, do not sign these contracts. No American company should have so much power, especially in Europe. This is the abuse of power and does not justify any end.
