Google To Publish AI Ethical Guidelines PYMNTS.com

Google is set to publish ethical guidelines for its use of artificial intelligence this week, after its decision not to renew a drone contract with the U.S. Department of Defense. According to Financial Times, the internet search company is widely regarded as having the most advanced AI. In fact, the Pentagon has been using Google's vision technology to help drones interpret objects on the ground. That relationship with the government resulted in fierce opposition inside the company, but it's not the only criticism Google has received regarding its use of AI. For example, the company's image search feature has come under fire for perpetuating preconceptions based on the data in Google's search index, such as a search for "CEOs" returning mostly white faces.
