Russia’s attacks continue over Ukraine and Gaza, despite China’s AI Deepseek taking priority over American rival Chatgpt in its second term at the White House. They did not promote that sacred ai vow.
The Satya Nadella-led search engine giant reportedly first discovered by Bloomberg has secretly made AI pledges since 2018 to not deploy artificial intelligence in surveillance and weapons technology I dropped it. The section entitled “Applications we don’t pursue” has been removed from the AI Principles page. With a new blog post, Google not only a) protects people and b) promotes global growth, but also supports national security, but also evokes the use of AI. It now has a market capitalization of $1 trillion. Insert it right there. Meanwhile, the newly updated AI Principals page very casually states that Google works to “mitigate unintended or harmful consequences and avoid unfair bias.”
Google, a subsidiary of Alphabet, founded in the Stanford dorm room in the mid-90s, made a strategic investment in AI along with Google Brain (2010) and DeepMind (2014). Google AI’s dedicated AI division was first announced at Google I/O 2017 by CEO Sundar Pichai. The company recently attracted FLAK, who is allegedly providing advanced software and AI technology to the US and Israeli military.
Google has removed the pledge not to use AI for weapons or surveillance from AI principles – Nitasha Tiku (@nitashatiku) February 4, 2025
Google this week removed its pledge from its website that it would not build AI for weapons or surveillance. This change was first discovered by Bloomberg.
It appears that the company has updated its public AI principles page. I’ve erased the section titled “Applications we don’t pursue.”
