What tech CEOs and executives have said about ICE’s actions in Minnesota
The Trump administration’s approach to immigration has reached a level of violence that the tech industry cannot ignore. In 2026 so far, federal immigration agents have killed at least eight people, including at least two U.S. citizens in Minneapolis — Renee Good and Alex Pretti. As immigration enforcement has grown more extreme — even detaining school children seeking legal asylum — tech workers have called on their leaders to speak up.
The tech industry has always been entwined in politics. Companies like Palantir, Clearview AI, Flock, and Paragon are contracted by U.S. Immigrations and Customs Enforcement and assist in the agency’s crackdowns. But as President Trump took office last year, his industry connections have grown. Elon Musk ran a government agency for months, and prolific Silicon Valley investor David Sacks is leading an advisory board on technology for the president. The CEOs behind some of the largest companies in the country — like Meta’s Mark Zuckerberg, Apple’s Tim Cook, and Google’s Sundar Pichai — had prime seats at Trump’s inauguration and have remained allied with him.
“We know our industry leaders have leverage: in October, they persuaded Trump to call off a planned ICE surge in San Francisco,” ICEout.tech, a group of tech industry workers opposing ICE, wrote in a statement on January 24, the day of ICU nurse Alex Pretti’s death. “Big tech CEOs are in the White House tonight,” the statement added, referring to a screening of a documentary about Melania Trump where Cook, Amazon’s Andy Jassy, and Zoom’s Eric Yuan were in attendance. “Now they need to go further, and join us in demanding ICE out of all of our cities.”
Some of tech’s biggest players have since spoken out, to mixed reception from their employees and the industry. Below, we are keeping an ongoing list of what tech leaders have had to say.
Reid Hoffman, co-founder of LinkedIn
LinkedIn co-founder Reid Hoffman, a major Democratic donor, published an editorial in the San Francisco Standard on January 29, calling on Silicon Valley to stop trying to be neutral in the wake of the Minnesota killings.
“We in Silicon Valley can’t bend the knee to Trump,” Hoffman wrote. “We can’t shrink away and just hope the crisis will fade. We know now that hope without action is not a strategy — it’s an invitation for Trump to trample whatever he can see, including our own business and security interests.”
He said he’s been encouraged to see more tech leaders speaking out, saying: “it’s a good start to something America needs much more of right now.”

“Whichever candidates you may have supported in the past — or even if (like many of my friends in Silicon Valley) you don’t usually do politics — you almost surely did not want this,” he wrote.
Sam Altman, CEO at OpenAI
OpenAI CEO Sam Altman had publicly opposed Trump’s policies during his first term, but has changed his tune in the new administration as his company has struck deals to develop AI infrastructure for the U.S. government, including the gargantuan $500 billion Stargate project.
In the days following Pretti’s death, Altman addressed OpenAI staff in an internal Slack message, which was reported by The New York Times.
“What’s happening with ICE is going too far. There is a big difference between deporting violent criminals and what’s happening now, and we need to get the distinction right,” he said. “President Trump is a very strong leader, and I hope he will rise to this moment and unite the country.”
Altman added, “We didn’t become super woke when that was popular, we didn’t start talking about masculine corporate energy when that was popular, and we are not going to make a lot of performative statements now about safety or politics or anything else. But we are going to continue to try to figure out how to actually do the right thing as best as we can.”
Dario Amodei, CEO at Anthropic
In an NBC interview, anchor Tom Llamas asked Dario Amodei about his views on defense in relation to current events. The anchor pointed out that Anthropic has a contract with the U.S. Department of Defense, and that it has partnered with Palantir — which has supplied technology to ICE — on projects for that agency.
First, Amodei reaffirmed that Anthropic does not have any contracts with ICE, despite its relationship with the Defense Department, and emphasized his concern about “the need to protect democracies against autocracies” like China and Russia.
“I’m a big believer in, carefully, with guardrails, arming democracies to defend against these countries,” Amodei said, adding that these values persist in the context of internal American politics.
“We need to be really careful about making sure democracies are worth defending. We need to defend our own democratic values at home,” he said. “I believe some of the things we’ve seen in the last few days concern me about that.”
He also mentioned ICE’s raids in Minneapolis in a post on X, where he referred to “the horror we’re seeing in Minnesota.”
Tim Cook, CEO at Apple
Apple’s CEO addressed staff in an internal memo on January 27:
“This is a time for deescalation,” Cook said. He later added, “I had a good conversation with the president this week where I shared my views, and I appreciate his openness to engaging on issues that matter to us all.”
Meredith Whittaker, president of Signal
Like the tech industry workers behind ICEout.tech, Signal President Meredith Whittaker has been outspoken about the role tech leaders have in social justice.
“I want everyone in tech who’s ever intoned about freedom, or their love of privacy, or their commitment to liberty, to join me in an unequivocal condemnation,” Whittaker wrote on X.
In another post, she said, “Masked agents of the US state are executing people in the streets and powerful leaders are openly lying to cover for them. To everyone in my industry who’s ever claimed to value freedom—draw on the courage of your convictions and stand up.”
As an end-to-end-encrypted messaging app, Signal is often used by activists to organize community actions.
Tony Stubblebine, CEO at Medium
The leader of the online publishing platform Medium, Tony Stubblebine posted screenshots on Threads of a message he shared with staff in which he explains his reasoning for allowing employees to take part in a nationwide general strike if they so choose, though he clarified that he is “not in the business of dictating people’s politics.”
“I started the week in my own head and heart over what I was seeing in Minneapolis and really struggling with the idea that those two murders were just the tip of the iceberg of wrongs,” Stubblebine wrote.
In the memo, he writes about the difficulty of navigating his role as a tech CEO during this time, saying that it feels “awkward to navigate being both on-mission and on-money.” He added that he is thinking about the company’s “responsibility to make [its] stance clear, especially as many other tech orgs are donating to the Trump campaign and supporting the current administration’s agenda.”
Stubblebine also pointed out that Medium’s approach to its role as a web publisher reflects the greater values of the company — “for example, that we don’t allow things like hateful content or racist slurs on Medium.”
Jeff Dean, chief scientist at Google DeepMind
Jeff Dean has spoken out about his reaction to the killings in Minnesota.
“This is absolutely shameful,” Dean wrote on X, responding to a video of federal agents shooting Alex Pretti. “Agents of a federal agency unnecessarily escalating, and then executing a defenseless citizen whose offense appears to be using his cell phone camera. Every person regardless of political affiliation should be denouncing this.”
James Dyett, OpenAI’s head of global business
James Dyett posted on X about what he sees as hypocrisy in the tech industry.
“There is far more outrage from tech leaders over a wealth tax than masked ICE agents terrorizing communities and executing civilians in the streets,” Dyett said. “Tells you what you need to know about the values of our industry.”
Keith Rabois, Ethan Choi, and Vinod Khosla, partners at Khosla Ventures
While Khosla Ventures partner Keith Rabois has publicly expressed support for ICE and the Trump administration’s practices, others at the firm have publicly opposed these views.
Rabois made incendiary comments on X after border patrol agents killed ICU nurse Alex Pretti in Minneapolis, prompting one founder to respond that that if he were a founder in Khosla Ventures’ portfolio, he would give the money back, calling Rabois “an embarrassment.”
Ethan Choi, another partner at Khosla Ventures, responded to the post to clarify that not everyone at the firm agrees with Rabois’ views. “I want to make it clear that Keith doesn’t represent everyone’s views here at [Khosla Ventures], at least not mine,” Choi wrote, adding: “What happened in Minnesota is plain wrong. Don’t know how you could really see it differently. Sad to see a person’s life taken unnecessarily.”
Vinod Khosla, the firm’s founder, reposted Choi’s message and called the federal agents “macho ICE vigilantes running amuck empowered by a conscious-less administration.”
“The video was sickening to watch and the storytelling without facts or with invented fictitious facts by authorities almost unimaginable in a civilized society,” Khosla wrote. “ICE personnel must have ice water running thru their veins to treat other human beings this way. There is politics but humanity should transcend that.”
Khosla also posted on X that he agrees with Hoffman, the LinkedIn co-founder, that more tech executives should speak out against the Trump administration.

An exclusive tour of Amazon’s Trainium lab, the chip that’s won over Anthropic, OpenAI, even Apple
Shortly after Amazon CEO Andy Jassy announced AWS’s groundbreaking $50 billion investment deal with OpenAI, Amazon invited me on a private tour of the chip development lab at the heart of the deal, at (mostly*) its own expense.
Industry experts are watching Amazon’s Trainium chip, created at that facility, for its implications for lower-cost AI inference and, potentially, a dent in Nvidia’s near monopoly.
Curious, I agreed to go.
My tour guides for the day were the lab’s director, Kristopher King (pictured below right) and director of engineering Mark Carroll (below left), as well as the team’s PR person who arranged the visit, Doron Aronson (pictured with yours truly later in the story).
AWS has been Anthropic’s major cloud platform since the AI lab’s early days — a relationship significant enough to survive Anthropic later adding Microsoft as a cloud partner as well, and Amazon’s growing partnership with OpenAI.
The OpenAI deal makes AWS the exclusive provider of the model maker’s new AI agent builder, Frontier, which could become an important part of OpenAI’s business if agents become as big as Silicon Valley thinks they will. We’ll see if that exclusivity stands exactly as announced. The Financial Times reported this week that Microsoft may believe OpenAI’s deal with Amazon violates its own deal with OpenAI, namely with Redmond getting access to all of OpenAI’s models and tech.
What makes AWS so appealing to OpenAI? As part of this deal, the cloud giant has agreed to supply OpenAI with 2 gigawatts of Trainium computing capacity. This is a giant commitment, given that Anthropic and Amazon’s own Bedrock service are already consuming Trainium chips faster than Amazon can produce them.

October 13-15, 2026
There are 1.4 million Trainium chips deployed across all three generations, and Anthropic’s Claude runs on over 1 million of the Trainium2 chips deployed, the company said.
It’s worth noting that while Trainium was originally geared toward faster, cheaper model training (a bigger priority a couple of years ago), it’s now tuned and used for inference as well. Inference — the process of actually running an AI model to generate responses — is currently the biggest performance bottleneck in the industry.
Case in point: Trainium2 handles the majority of the inference traffic on Amazon’s Bedrock service, which supports the building of AI applications by Amazon’s many enterprise customers and allows the apps to use multiple models.
“Our customer base is just expanding as fast as we can get capacity out there,” King said. “Bedrock could be as big as EC2 one day,” he added, referring to AWS’s behemoth compute cloud service.
Trainium vs. Nvidia
Beyond offering an alternative to Nvidia’s backlogged, hard-to-acquire GPUs, Amazon says its new chips running on its new specialty Trn3 UltraServers cost up to 50% less to run for comparable performance than using classic cloud servers.
Along with Trainium3, released in December, this AWS team also built new Neuron switches, and Carroll says that combo is transformative.
“What that gives us is something huge,” Carroll said. The switches allow every Trainium3 chip to talk to every other chip in a mesh configuration, reducing latency. “That’s why Trainium3 is breaking all kinds of records,” particularly in “price per power,” he said.
When trillions of tokens a day are involved, such improvements add up.
In fact, Amazon’s chip team was lauded by Apple in 2024. In a rare moment of openness for the secretive company, Apple’s director of AI publicly described how it used another of the team’s chips — Graviton, a low-power, ARM-based server CPU and the first breakout chip this team designed. Apple also lauded Inferentia — a chip specifically designed for inference — and gave a nod to Trainium, which was new at the time.
These chips represent the classic Amazon playbook: See what people want to buy, then build an in-house alternative that competes on price.
The catch for chips, historically, has been switching costs. Applications written for Nvidia’s chips must be re-architected to work with others — a time-consuming process that discourages developers from switching.
But the AWS chip team proudly told me that Trainium now supports PyTorch, a popular open source framework for building AI models. That includes many of the ones hosted on Hugging Face, a vast library where developers share open source models.
The transition, Carroll told me, requires “basically a one-line change, and then recompile, and then run on Trainium.” In other words, Amazon is attempting to chip away at Nvidia’s market dominance wherever possible.
AWS has also this month announced a partnership with Cerebras Systems, integrating that company’s inference chip on servers running Trainium for what Amazon promises will be superpowered, low-latency AI performance.
But Amazon’s ambitions go beyond the chips themselves. It also designs the server that hosts the chips. Besides the networking components, this team has designed “Nitro,” a hardware-software combo that provides virtualization tech (which allows many instances of software to run separately on the same server); new state-of-the-art liquid cooling technology; and the server sleds (pictured below) that host this gear.
All of that is to control cost and performance.
Working 24/7 on the “bring-up”
Amazon’s custom chip-designing unit was born when the cloud giant bought Israeli chip designer Annapurna Labs in January 2015 for about $350 million. So this team has now had more than 10 years designing chips for AWS. The unit has retained its Annapurna roots and name — its logo is everywhere in the office.
This chip lab is located in a shiny, chrome-windowed building in Austin’s upscale “The Domain” district, a walkable area filled with shops and restaurants that’s sometimes called Austin’s Silicon Valley.
The offices have your classic tech corporate vibe: desks in cubicles, gathering spots, and conference rooms. But tucked away at the back of a high floor in the building is the actual lab, with sweeping views of the city.
The shelving-filled lab, about the size of two large conference rooms, is a noisy industrial space thanks to the fans on the equipment. It looks like a cross between a high school shop class and a Hollywood set for a high-end lab, except the engineers are dressed in jeans, not white lab coats.
Note that this is not where the chips are manufactured, so no white hazmat suits were necessary. The Trainium3 is a state-of-the-art 3-nanometer chip, produced by TSMC, arguably the leader in 3-nanometer manufacturing, with other chips produced by Marvell.
But this is the room where the magic of the “bring-up” occurs.
“A silicon bring-up is when you get the chip for the first time, and it’s like a big overnight party. You stay here, like a lock-in,” King explains. After 18 months of work, the chip is activated for the first time to verify it works as designed. The team even filmed some of the Trainium3 bring-up and posted it on YouTube.
Spoiler alert: It’s never problem-free.
For Trainium3, the prototype chip was originally air-cooled, like previous versions. The current chip is now liquid-cooled, which offers energy advantages and was quite an engineering feat.
During the bring-up, the dimensions for how the chip attached to the air-cooling heat sink were off, so the chip couldn’t be activated.
Unfazed, the team “immediately got a grinder and just started grinding off the metal,” King said. Because they didn’t want the noise disrupting the bring-up pizza party atmosphere, they snuck off and did the grinding in a conference room.
Staying up all night and solving problems “is what silicon bring-up is all about,” King said.
The lab even has a welding station, where hardware lab engineer and master welder Isaac Guevara demonstrated welding tiny integrated circuit components through a microscope. This is such insanely difficult work that senior leader Carroll openly admitted he couldn’t do it, to the guffaws of Guevara and the rest of the engineers in the room.
The lab also contains both custom-made and commercial tools for testing and analyzing issues with chips. Here’s signal engineer Arvind Srinivasan demonstrating how the lab tests each tiny component on the chip:
Sleds are the star of the lab
But the star of the lab is an entire row showcasing each generation of the “sleds” the team designed.
Sleds are the trays that house the Trainium AI chips, Graviton CPU chips, and supporting boards and components. Stack them together on a rack with the networking component, also custom-designed by this team, and you get the systems that are at the heart of Anthropic Claude’s success.
Here’s the sled that was shown off during the AWS re:invent conference in December:
Proven by Anthropic and OpenAI
I expected my guides to crow about the OpenAI deal during the tour. But they didn’t.
The reticence could have been related to the aforementioned potential legal haze that might hang over the deal. But the sense I got was that these boots-on-the-ground engineers (who are currently designing the next version, Trainium4) haven’t had much chance to work with OpenAI yet. Their day-to-day work has so far been focused on Anthropic’s and Amazon’s needs.
Currently, the biggest chunk of Trainium2 chips is deployed in Project Rainier — one of the world’s largest AI compute clusters — which went live in late 2025 with 500,000 chips. It’s used by Anthropic.
But there was a wall monitor in the main office displaying a quote about how OpenAI will be using Trainium. The pride was there, if subtle.
In addition to this lab, the team also has its own private data center for quality and testing purposes. A short drive away, it doesn’t run customer workloads, so it’s housed at a co-location facility, not an AWS data center.
Security is tight: There are strict protocols to enter the building and to access Amazon’s area within.
The data center’s cooling system is so loud that earplugs are mandatory, and the air is thick with the acrid smell of heated metal. It’s not a pleasant place for the average person to hang out.
At this data center, there are rows and rows of servers filled with sleds that integrate all of Amazon’s newest custom chips: Graviton CPU, liquid-cooled Trainium3, Amazon Nitro, all happily computing away. The liquid runs on a closed system, meaning it is reused, which should also help reduce the environmental impact, the engineers said.
Here’s what a current Trn3 UltraServer looks like: Multiple sleds are on top and bottom, with the Neuron switches in the middle. Hardware development engineer David Martinez-Darrow is seen here performing maintenance on a sled:
While attention on the team has always been high, the scrutiny has really ratcheted up as of late.
Amazon CEO Andy Jassy keeps a close eye on this lab, publicly bragging about its products like a proud dad. In December, he said Trainium was already a multibillion-dollar business for AWS and called it one piece of AWS tech he’s most excited about. He also gave the chip a shout-out when announcing the OpenAI agreement.
The team feels the pressure, too. Engineers will work 24/7 for three to four weeks around each bring-up event to fix any issues so the chips can be mass-produced and put into data centers.
“It’s very important that we get as fast as possible to prove that it’s actually going to work,” Carroll said. “So far, we’ve been doing really well.”
*Disclosure: Amazon provided airfare and covered the cost of one night at a local hotel. Honoring its Leadership Principle of Frugality, this was a back-of-the-plane middle seat and a modest room. TechCrunch picked up the other associated travel costs like Ubers and luggage fees. (Yes, I checked a bag for an overnight trip. I’m high maintenance that way.)

TechCrunch Mobility: Uber everywhere, all at once
Welcome back to TechCrunch Mobility, your central hub for news and insights on the future of transportation. To get this in your inbox, sign up here for free — just click TechCrunch Mobility!
If you haven’t noticed, Uber is suddenly everywhere, at least when it comes to autonomous vehicles. The company sold off Uber ATG, its in-house autonomous vehicle development unit, back in 2020. Uber shed a number of its moonshots — although it maintained an equity stake in all of them — so it could focus on its core businesses of delivery and ride-hailing.
But Uber never gave up entirely on AVs. It’s spent the past two years locking up partnerships with dozens of autonomous vehicle technology companies across delivery, drones, trucking, and robotaxis. It has taken a worldview, too, making agreements with Chinese companies to launch robotaxis in Europe and the Middle East, as well as startups like U.K.-based Wayve.
And now there is another one with Rivian. The TL;DR of the deal is Uber will make an initial $300 million investment in Rivian and will buy 10,000 fully autonomous R2 robotaxis ahead of a planned rollout in San Francisco and Miami in 2028. Uber has the option to buy up to 40,000 more starting in 2030. This fleet will be exclusively available on Uber’s network.
Here’s how I am thinking about this deal. While the total deal could be as high as $1.25 billion, Uber’s initial outlay is relatively small. And the risk ratio is heavily weighted toward Rivian. It’s also the only deal that Uber has made in which the company is the developer of the self-driving system and the vehicle manufacturer.
Rivian hasn’t started producing the R2 SUV yet, nor has it tested and deployed a self-driving system designed for robotaxis. To raise the hurdle even higher, the robotaxi is supposed to be built in Rivian’s Georgia factory, which is still under construction.
And the EV maker has already made at least one sacrifice in hopes of pulling it off. Rivian said it no longer expects to meet its profitability goal in 2027 because of how much money it is spending on its autonomy efforts.

A little bird
Speaking of Uber, a little bird hinted that the ride-hailing company might have been in talks with Rivian for its robotaxi deal for quite a long time. One person directly familiar with both companies told me a deal like this wouldn’t happen overnight. After I asked for more specifics, I got a question in return: “Does RJ strike you as someone who has a strategic horizon that short?” Touché!

Deals!
Like Uber, Nvidia is everywhere. Or at least wants to be. The company has made numerous investments — either direct cash injections or in-kind chip deals — in autonomous vehicle technology companies. And it’s also locking up partnerships with automakers — as we saw this week during its GTC conference — in a bid to sell its autonomous vehicle development platform called Nvidia Drive Hyperion.
Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang announced onstage deals — either new or expanded — with BYD, Geely, Hyundai, and Nissan for its AV development platform. GM, Mercedes-Benz, and Toyota have already signed deals with Nvidia to use the platform.
Nvidia has been making deals with automakers for years, but the pace and specificity of AVs is worth noting.
“The ChatGPT moment of self-driving cars has arrived. We now know we could successfully autonomously drive cars,” Huang said during his GTC keynote, noting that altogether the four automakers build 18 million cars each year.
Other deals that got my attention …
Advanced Navigation, an Australian startup developing navigation and autonomous systems, raised $110 million in a Series C funding round led by Airtree Ventures, with strategic participation from Quadrant Private Equity and the National Reconstruction Fund Corporation (NRFC).
Arc Boat Company, the Los Angeles electric boat startup, raised $50 million in a Series C funding round from Eclipse, a16z, Menlo Ventures, Lowercarbon Capital, Necessary Ventures, and Offline Ventures.
BusRight, the school bus routing and technology startup, raised more than $30 million in a round led by Volition Capital.
Jeff Bezos is reportedly raising $100 billion for a new fund that will focus on buying up companies in major industrial sectors — like automotive and aerospace. The plan is to then modernize these companies using AI models developed by Bezos’ new startup Project Prometheus.
Rivr, a Zurich-based autonomous robotics startup known for its stair-climbing delivery robot, was acquired by Amazon. Terms of the deal weren’t disclosed.
Trevor Milton, the founder of the now-bankrupt electric truck startup Nikola who was pardoned by President Trump, is trying to raise $1 billion for AI-powered planes.
Zenobē Energy has purchased Revolv, a San Francisco-based fleet charging startup, for an undisclosed amount.
Notable reads and other tidbits
A cyberattack on U.S. vehicle breathalyzer company Intoxalock has left drivers across the United States stranded and unable to start their vehicles.
Kodiak has expanded commercial autonomous freight operations to the Dallas-El Paso corridor. This is the company’s second major route and a core part of its network expansion roadmap, according to COO Michael Wiesinger.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration upgraded its investigation into the performance of Tesla’s Full Self-Driving (Supervised) software in low-visibility conditions. The probe has now been escalated to an “engineering analysis,” its highest level of scrutiny and a required step before the agency tells a company to issue a recall.
One more thing …
I mentioned in last week’s edition to keep an eye out for my interview with Rivian founder and CEO RJ Scaringe. We covered a lot of ground and I found his comments about robotics particularly interesting. To summarize, Scaringe thinks companies are approaching industrial robotics all wrong. His new startup, Mind Robotics, is going to do things differently and focus more on robotic hands and steering clear of building robots that can do back flips.
As Scaringe told me: “I think what’s missed in industrial [robotics] and this is one of the things we really see clearly, is the work happens with the hands. So, the hands are very, very important. Everything else, from a robotic system point of view, is to get the hands to the right place. And so the ability for the robots to do really complex motions, like, let’s say, like a back flip, that actually just means the robot has a lot of unnecessary complexity in it for the vast majority of tasks.” You can read the interview here.

Elon Musk unveils chip manufacturing plans for SpaceX and Tesla
Elon Musk recently outlined ambitious plans for a chip-building collaboration between his companies Tesla and SpaceX.
Bloomberg reports that Musk shared his plans on Saturday night at an event in downtown Austin, Texas, with a photo suggesting that what Musk is calling the “Terafab” facility will be built near Tesla’s Austin headquarters and “gigafactory.”
Musk said he’s pursuing this project because semiconductor manufacturers aren’t making chips quickly enough for his companies’ artificial intelligence and robotics needs: “We either build the Terafab or we don’t have the chips, and we need the chips, so we build the Terafab.”
The goal is to manufacture chips that can support 100 to 200 gigawatts of computing power per year on Earth, along with a terawatt in space, Musk said. He did not offer a timeline for these plans.
As Bloomberg noted, Musk does not have a background in semiconductor manufacturing, but he does have a history of overpromising on goals and timelines.
