Google employees resign

About a dozen Google employees are resigning in protest over the tech giant’s involvement in Project Maven, a controversial military program that uses artificial intelligence, Gizmodo reports.

Project Maven, which harnesses AI to improve drone targeting, has been a source of concern for a number of Google employees. Last month, over 3,100 Google workers signed a letter addressed to the company’s CEO, Sundar Pichai, asking him to pull the tech giant out of the project.

Project Maven, which harnesses AI to improve drone targeting

Research and development of facial recognition applied to drone targeting. Reduce collateral casualties by taking out specific individuals. Could be abused by using it as an assassination vehicle - camera, facial recognition targeting, kill method which could be injectable.

Commercially available size, can be much smaller...
