Google has proposed additional language in its contract with the department to prevent its AI from being used for domestic mass surveillance or autonomous weapons without appropriate human control
Google is about to be declared a threat to national security! Blocked from doing business with anyone who does business with the US Government! OMG! Supply chain risk! Terrorists!/s (Hey, it happened to Anthropic...)
Not really. Google proposed these limitations, letting them claim proudly "hey, we proposed this!"
They didn't require these limitations, so my suspicion is Pentagon will say no, the deal will be classified so nobody will know, and Google will get the credit they want for "trying."
For those that missed it... Anthropic proposed to code the restrictions into the model itself. Other companies have proposed putting these restrictions in their contract -but lack any way of verifying or enforcing them beyond taking the government's word for it.
It's like magats can't understand that two thing can be bad. And instead it's this crybaby "BUT WHATABOUT!?!?!"
"But they did it first" is not the defense you seem to think it is. People who behave badly should face consequences, and this is a thing MOST people agree on. You're just too far gone to know that - you're as bad as the lunatic left, but at least they don't have a literal cult leader.

This is not going to last.
