The Israeli military is using AI products from Microsoft to conduct its war in Gaza. Off the shelf AI products powered by the tech company’s Azure cloud computing system and OpenAI are helping the IDF sort through data, translate Arabic, and even pick targets. But AI translations aren’t perfect and these systems often make mistakes.
What happens when the consequences are life and death?
Associated Press global investigative reporters Garance Burke and Michael Biesecker are part of a team that broke the story about Israel’s use of Microsoft’s commercial AI in a war. They’re on the show today to help us sort through it all.
- Defining “AI”
- Off the shelf solutions for war
- Microsoft Azure as war’s translator and search engine
- “The Israel military is one of the leading militaries in the world adopting the use of AI to assist in its war efforts. They’ve been doing this for years.”
- AI is picking targets
- Students to militants
- AI’s mistranslations
- Blaming AI for human sins
- Matthew’s vision of a hellish automated future
- Employees push back
- The money is just too good
How US tech giants supplied Israel with AI models, raising questions about tech’s role in warfare
As Israel uses US-made AI models in war, concerns arise about tech’s role in who lives and who dies
