More than 1,000 Google employees have signed a petition demanding answers from leadership after the ousting of a prominent AI ethicist

on Wednesday that she had been dismissed from Google over disputes regarding a research paper, as well as an email she sent to one of Google's research groups which criticized the company's treatment of minority workers.

Gebru, a highly respected Black female scientist, said on Wednesday that she was terminated after a dispute over a research paper that examined the potential ethical risks of language models. Google had asked Gebru to either retract the paper entirely or redact her name and the names of other co-authors from Google. Gebrushe would remove her name from the paper in exchange for an explanation as to why the paper was being rejected.

The petition, which was launched on Thursday, demands that Google's AI chief Jeff Dean and other managers involved with the decision to block Gebru's research paper explain their reasoning to the Ethics AI team. It also demands "transparency to the broader public" over the decision, as well as commitments to research integrity and academic freedom.
