TEHRAN: Iranian software engineer Alireza Zakeri has announced his resignation from Google due to the company's involvement in Project Nimbus, a significant AI and cloud services deal with Israel. The $1.2 billion project supports the Israeli military and is tied to ongoing military actions in Gaza. According to Islamic Republic News Agency, Alireza Zakeri cited ethical concerns as the primary reason for his departure, pointing to the role that Google's technology plays in the conflict that has claimed over 43,000 lives. Zakeri's resignation highlights the growing scrutiny and criticism tech companies face regarding their partnerships and the potential implications of their technologies in global conflicts. His decision comes amid heightened tensions following Israeli military strikes that have drawn international attention and condemnation.
