I CAN’T EVEN REMEMBER HOW LONG IT’S BEEN SINCE GOOGLE CHANGED ITS MOTTO TO “GO ON AND BE EVIL”: Rumble CEO Labels Google ‘Evil’ Over Sinister AI Update.

So what specifically did Google change in its new AI standards? In the Jan. 30 version of Google AI principles preserved by Internet Archive, Google promised not to “design or deploy” AI to be used for “[w]eapons or other technologies whose principal purpose or implementation is to cause or directly facilitate injury to people,” or for technologies “that gather or use information for surveillance violating internationally accepted norms.”

But these passages are conspicuously lacking from the newly updated Google AI standards. It seems Google CEO Sundar Pichai’s appearance at Trump’s inauguration (unsurprisingly) betokened no desire for reform.

On the one hand, this is a “Skynet Smiles” moment. On the other hand, China and other rivals will AI-enhance their weapons (and logistics), regardless.
