Israel’s AI tactics, resulting in high civilian casualties, being exported abroad: Analysis
Experts in the field of artificial intelligence (AI) and human rights have expressed concerns over a report that the Israeli military has identified tens of thousands of Palestinians in Gaza as potential targets using an AI-assisted targeting system called “Lavender”.
The report by two Israeli publications, 972+ Magazine and Hebrew outlet Local Call raises questions about other nations wanting the technology, says an author on the subject.
Antony Loewenstein – an Australian journalist and author of The Palestine Laboratory: How Israel Exports the Technology of Occupation Around the World – says Israel is planning to export the AI tech and its countries are eager to acquire it.
“Israel is currently trying to sell these tools to foreign entities, to governments, that are looking to what Israel’s doing in Gaza, not with disgust, but actually with admiration – and we’ll find out in the coming months and years who they may be,” said Loewenstein.
“My sense is it’s gonna be countries that are currently saying they’re opposed to what Israel is doing.”
