Goodfellow quits because he is a jolly goodfellow

Apple's director of machine learning, Ian Goodfellow, "is leaving the company due to its return to work policy."

In a note to staff, Goodfellow said 'I believe strongly that more flexibility would have been the best policy for my team.'"

Apple "poached Goodfellow from Google back in 2019 to join its 'Special Projects Group' as the director of machine learning."

Apple employees were forced to return to work on April 11 following a two-year stint of remote work brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic. At first, the company required employees to work in person at least one day per week. On May 4, the company ramped that up to two days per week in the office.

From May 23, employees will need to be in the office three days per week. This is the start of Apple's so-called "hybrid" work plan, which will require employees to work from the office on Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday every week....
