Five Microsoft employees were ejected from a meeting with the company's CEO for protesting contracts to provide AI and cloud services to the Israeli military. The protest came after an investigation revealed that Microsoft's AI models were used in selecting bombing targets during recent wars in Gaza and Lebanon. Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella did not acknowledge the protesters and they were escorted out of the room. Microsoft has not responded to requests for comment on the protest or the employees' potential disciplinary action.
