Blake Lemoine made headlines after being suspended from Google, following his claims that an artificial intelligence bot had become sentient. The Alphabet-run AI development team put him on paid leave for breaching company policy by sharing confidential information, he said in a Medium post. In another, Lemoine published conversations he said he and a fellow researcher had with LaMDA.
