Google Provided AI Tools, Including Gemini and Vertex, to Israeli Military Since 2021, Documents Show
Jan 22, 2025, 02:49 AM
Documents reported by The Washington Post reveal that Google provided the Israeli military with advanced artificial intelligence technologies at the onset of the Israel-Hamas conflict. The internal documents indicate that Google has been assisting the Israeli Defense Ministry and military since 2021. A Google employee reportedly requested that the Israeli military be granted access to the AI technology known as 'Gemini.' Additionally, there were warnings from within Google that if the company did not enhance its support, the Israeli military might turn to Amazon for similar services. Over 100 Google employees have called for a review of the company's collaboration with the Israeli military, but these requests were ignored. The documents also highlight Israel's interest in expanding its use of Google's Vertex service, which applies AI algorithms for military purposes, including targeting human and infrastructural assets in Gaza.
