    Critical edit to the headline: Google DeepMind [Workers] votes

    DeepMind itself didn’t vote to unionize. That would be interesting, frightening, and awesome.

      it would seem like a good sign if it insisted on unionizing for the sake of the workers. lol

        It would, yah.
        But then I’d have concerns about creating a genuine empathetic intelligence, and treating it like a tool or another piece of software.
