Ramesh Srinivasan, a professor of information studies at UCLA, says “there’s a shocking lack of transparency” over Google’s Project Nimbus that’s being used by the Israeli military in Gaza.

Big technology companies working with Israel’s army could be found complicit in the attacks on civilians there, he told Al Jazeera.

“Corporate America Big Tech is actually aligned with many of the Israeli military’s actions. The fact that AI systems are being used indicates there’s a lack of regard by the Israeli state. Everybody knows these AI systems will make mistakes,” said Srinivasan.

“There will be wrongful deaths and wrongful assassinations that we’ve seen with so many civilians in Gaza. They’re basically complicit.”
