Google owner drops promise not to use AI for weapons | Alphabet | The Guardian
The Google owner, Alphabet, has dropped its pledge not to use artificial intelligence for purposes such as developing weapons and surveillance tools.
Google’s AI head, Demis Hassabis, said the guidelines were being overhauled in a changing world and that AI should protect “national security”.
Google’s motto when it first floated was “don’t be evil”, although this was later downgraded in 2009 to a “mantra” and was not included in the code of ethics of Alphabet when the parent company was created in 2015.
It’s not confusing but I must ask it my readers. Is Google finally admitting to being evil or to then necessity of evil?
My readers, because of the problem I had with my domain recently, I am committed to paying down the domain and the space here on WordPress where I have been for a very long time down for very many years to come. I am committed to this life. This is my life. And no matter what else I do to make money, I will always endeavor for the human spirit especially in the age of AI(and its potentiality as weaponry, civil rights, individualized and targeted abuse). Please be a part of this determined humanizing endeavor by donating towards this effort today. Thank you..
