Google Cloud CEO Thomas Kurian has rejected the growing fear that artificial intelligence will wipe out technology jobs, saying instead that the technology will empower workers to achieve more than ever before. Google Cloud CEO Thomas Kurian dismisses job loss fears.(LinkedIn/Thomas Kurian) Speaking in an interview with tech newsletter Big Technology, Kurian said AI should be seen as an enabler, not a replacement. “I think there is definitely a middle ground,” Kurian said, countering widespread predictions of mass automation. He added that AI’s purpose is to enhance human capabilities rather than to replace people outright. Kurian pointed to Google’s Customer Engagement Suite — a range of AI-powered customer service tools launched last year — as a real-world example. According to him, despite early client concerns that AI might lead to job losses, “almost none of our clients have let anyone go.” Expanding capabilities, not cutting staff Kurian explained that when Google rolled out the suite, some companies worried that AI would make their customer service agents redundant. However, the opposite

Users claim in a class action that LinkedIn's Insight Tag, a tracking pixel the job networking site provides to advertisers, accessed health information without their knowledge. (CN) — A federal judge on Friday rejected attempts by LinkedIn and other tech companies to toss out the bulk of consumer privacy claims asserting the companies secretly tracked users' sensitive medical information across healthcare websites without their knowledge or consent. Senior U.S. District Judge Edward Davila ruled that it is plausible that consumers had no idea how much of their private medical data was being collected by LinkedIn's tracking software and that the company's data practices could constitute a "highly offensive" intrusion into their privacy. "Given the nature of LinkedIn's alleged conduct and the sensitivity of the information shared here, the court finds this issue is inappropriate to resolve at the pleadings stage," Davila wrote. Davila, a Barack Obama appointee, permitted key privacy claims to proceed, particularly those asserting eavesdropping and constitutional privacy violations. He found that the named plaintiffs, four LinkedIn users, sufficiently stated they had a reasonable expectation of privacy in their communications with health care providers and that LinkedIn's conduct could be considered highly offensive. He said that exchanges between

AIM’s Post Former British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak has joined U.S. tech giant Microsoft and AI startup Anthropic as a senior adviser, bringing his expertise in strategy, macroeconomics, and geopolitical trends to the forefront of global technology discussions. Sunak, who stepped down as leader of the opposition Conservative Party last July, continues to serve as a member of the British Parliament while taking on these part-time advisory roles. In a LinkedIn post, Sunak stated that the proceeds from these positions will be donated in full to The Richmond Project, a charity he co-founded with his wife Akshata Murty. The roles are designed to comply fully with ACOBA regulations, ensuring that Sunak will not engage in UK-specific policy or lobby government officials on behalf of the firms. At Microsoft, Sunak will provide strategic perspectives at events including the annual Microsoft Summit, while at Anthropic, he will advise on global strategic matters. Amazon and Google-backed Anthropic confirmed that the advisory role is internally focused and part-time, underscoring Sunak’s influence on shaping AI strategy without conflicts of interest. This move follows Sunak’s July return to Goldman Sachs in an advisory capacity, where he had previously begun his career as an analyst before transitioning

LinkedIn will make competitor insights a paid feature from Oct 15, giving $99/month Premium users access to data on nine rivals and trending posts from three. LinkedIn will soon restrict access to certain analytics features, previously available for free, to paid subscribers of its Premium Company Pages starting October 15. The update will allow Premium Company Page users, who pay at least $99 per month, to compare data from up to nine competitor pages and view trending posts from three competitors. These insights were earlier accessible to all company page admins without a subscription. The change is part of the platform’s broader strategy to grow its subscription-based offerings. The company launched its business packages in April last year, and since then, Premium Company Pages have recorded nearly 80% subscriber growth quarter-over-quarter, making it one of its fastest-growing products. The company noted that by limiting certain tools to paid users, the platform aims to increase uptake of its premium plans and reduce support costs. Social media platforms are also seen putting their advanced analytics and engagement tools behind paywalls to encourage subscription growth. While advertising tends to remain the platform’s main source of revenue, it continues to expand its paid services
