Gebru is a pathbreaking scientist doing some of the most important work to ensure just and accountable AI and to create a welcoming and diverse AI research field.


Her research accomplishments are extensive, and have profoundly impacted academic scholarship and public policy. Gebru was one of very few Black women Research Scientists at the company, which boasts a dismal 1.6% Black women employees overall. We call on Google Research to strengthen its commitment to research integrity and to unequivocally commit to supporting research that honors the commitments made in Google’s AI Principles. Timnit Gebru, who was terminated from her position as Staff Research Scientist and Co-Lead of Ethical Artificial Intelligence (AI) team at Google, following unprecedented research censorship.

We, the undersigned, stand in solidarity with Dr.
