Marc Thiessen: Shame on Google for treating the US military as evil
According to a new report, Google will not seek another contract for Project Maven, a controversial military program that uses artificial intelligence to improve drone targeting. WASHINGTON -- Giving in to pressure from its workforce, Google recently announced that it is pulling out of Project Maven, a groundbreaking Pentagon program to harness artificial intelligence to sift through and interpret video imagery from drones. The move came after an uprising by 4,000 Google employees who signed a letter urging the company to cancel Project Maven and promise to never "build warfare technology." In their letter, the employees said that working with the Pentagon would violate Google's longtime motto "Don't Be Evil" and "irreparably damage Google's brand." Are they saying that the U.S. military is evil?
