Microsoft AI -SICHTHOUCHENT Neta Haiby showed a confidential team with a room full of people on Tuesday and revealed details from the company's artificial intelligence plan for Walmartaccording to materials that are viewed by CNBC.

Demonstrators interrupted the Microsoft Build session to the best security practices and Haiby changed their screen in the middle of the Ruckus and showed that Walmart, one of Microsoft's most important customers, was ready, with rock ' [Microsoft’s] Entra Web and Al Gateway. “

In the message published by Leigh Samons, a main architect of Cloud solutions at Microsoft, the process was detailed how Microsoft would integrate its technology into the processes of Walmart.

It also means that one of Walmart's tools needed additional protective measures.

“Myassistant is one that you build and are excessive and need guardrails,” said the message and refers to a tool that created and created Walmart last summer and that “uses a unique structure of Walmart -Proprietary data, technology and major language models in the Azure Openai service”, according to a press release in January.

The tool helps to store employees who summarize long documents, create new marketing content and more according to publication.

In the message of the internal teams, a “respected” AI engineer at Walmart also quoted with the words: “Microsoft is Google with al -Sicherheit. We are happy to go this way with you.”

The verge was the first to report on the AI ​​plans. CNBC has contacted Microsoft and Walmart to get a comment.

The protest recorded Sarah Bird, Microsoft's head of the responsible AI, who was part of the building panel with Haiby. Haiby himself was formerly a member of the Israeli defense forces, according to a year-long Tumblr side, which was viewed by CNBC.

Haiby did not immediately answer a request for comments.

“Sarah Bird, they wash the crimes of Microsoft in Palestine,” said Hossam Nasr, an organizer of the group No Azure for Apartheid, and continued: “How can you dare to talk about it …” Before the Livestream audio was falsified.

The NASR was one of the Microsoft employees ended last year after planning a vigil for Palestinians in Gaza.

The protest and the unveiling of Walmart's KI plans followed another disturbance that day at the Build Developer Conference of Microsoft in Seattle, when an unarmed Palestinian technology worker disrupted a speech by Jay Parikh, Microsoft's head of Coreai.

“Jay, they are involved in the genocide in Gaza,” said the technology worker, who did not want to share his name out of fear of retaliation. “My people suffered from you. How do you dare? How can you dare to talk about AI if my people suffered. Cut the relationships with Israel.”

Then he called to the “Free Palestine” and said: “No azure blue for apartheid”, an allusion to the group and her petition.

On Monday, the Microsoft software interrupted engineer Joe Lopez CEO Satya Nadellas Keynote's speech on the stage: “Satya, how about how to show you how Microsoft Palestinians killed? How about you how to show you how Israeli war crimes are operated by Azure?”

The recent disorders are part of an increasing protest fund at Microsoft events compared to the use of the company's AI products by the Israeli military.

At Microsoft's 50th anniversary event last month, two Microsoft software protested publicly during the presentations of managers. The roles of both employees were terminated shortly afterwards in accordance with the documents regarded by CNBC.

At the April event interrupted IBTIHAL ABOUSAD, then software engineer in the company's AI department, the speech by Microsoft ai Mustafa Sulyman.

“Mustafa, shame over you,” said Aboussad when she went on stage at the event in Redmond, Washington. “You claim that you want to use AI forever, but Microsoft sells AI weapons to the Israeli military. Fifty thousand people have died and Microsoft drives this genocide in our region.”

“You have blood in your hands,” she said before working quickly. “Very Microsoft has blood in your hands.”

Although Microsoft's protests focused on the use of his Israeli military technology, AI companies have declined bans for the broader military use of their products in the past few months and have completed business with giants from the Defense Industry and the Ministry of Defense.

In November, the anthropic and defense entrepreneur Palantir announced a partnership with Amazon Web Services to grant us intelligence and defense agencies on the Claude AI models from Anthropic. Palantir recently signed a new five-year contract worth up to $ 100 million for the military access of the US military for his program for the Maven AI warfare.

Openai and Anduril announced a partnership that enables the Defense -Tech company to use advanced AI systems for “national security missions”. And last month, Scale Ai concluded a contract with the Defense Ministry for a multimillion dollar flagship AI agent program.
