I'm no fan of Google, but I don't agree with the idea that Google is obligated to have them as employees. If anything, it just shows the BS of the whole AI narrative that a lot of startups (also non startups like MS/FB/Google) have been trying to push.

If you study how Leapforce interacts with or what they require of their subcontractors and compare to the Labor & Industry definition of business owner/independent contractor, you would see that they are abusing the definition. Leapforce subcontractors are employees.

I agree that Leapforce is responsible, I just don't get how Google is as well.
