Google says it will no longer permit its artificial intelligence or AI technology to be used in any activities involving weapons. The company’s chief executive officer, Sundar Pichai, announced the decision in an Internet post. He wrote that the new policy was one of several newly-launched principles aimed at guiding the company’s AI work in the future.
The principles are a set of ethical guidelines covering the company’s development and sale of AI technology and tools. The principles were announced after more than 4,000 Google employees signed a document calling for the company to cancel an AI agreement with the US Department of Defense. That agreement, known as Project Maven, involves the use of Google’s AI technology to examine drone images for the US military. A Google official recently told employees Project Maven would not be extended after it ends next year. Google is expected to discuss with military officials how to complete the project without violating its new principles. Kirk Hanson is director of the Markkula Centre for Applied Ethics at Santa Clara University in California. The centre examines how ethics can be used to guide technology development. He said that the opposition by Google employees to the US military agreement was based on fears that AI technology could lead to the creation of autonomous weapons. Google chief Pichai said the company does not plan to stop providing AI technology for all military uses. He said Google will still seek government projects in areas such as military training, Internet security and search and rescue.
