TL;DR

Dozens of Stanford graduates walked out during Sundar Pichai's keynote amid protests over Google's work with the US government and AI. Pichai largely dodged AI questions, joking about his surname, while protesters displayed signs such as 'ICE spies with Google AI' and highlighted concerns about AI's impact on jobs and civil liberties; the incident mirrors broader campus unease about AI and tech giants.
