I figured it out, this is the bad place!

Reminder that you don't get to see the pictures of these children on the news because governments and media are preventing it.

Humanity created the greatest educational tool in the history of mankind and we're more stupid than ever.

If there is a God, that asshole needs to send an asteroid.

Some say a comet will fall from the sky

What technology does Google make that can be used for that?

TLDR; direct from the article:

Israel has been integrating AI into the military for several years, using the technology to process surveillance footage.

IDF claims

“If anything, these tools have minimized collateral damage and raised the accuracy of the human-led process.”

So, take it with a grain of salt.

Which in a way makes their killing of children even more intentional

[–] [email protected] 9 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

Seriously, Gaza is practically leveled and they're bragging about accuracy!

[–] drivepiler 2 points 3 hours ago

They very accurately targeted anything and everything in Gaza

[–] Duamerthrax 5 points 3 hours ago

It's absolutely intentional. There is no collateral damage because it's all intentional damage.

this account is on fediverse! with all the discussion in some circles about banning twitter links, let’s also positively encourage linking to users not on corporate platforms: https://mastodon.online/@streetartutopia

That is heartbreaking.

Israel's genocide in Gaza has created the largest number of child amputees in history.

They did remove 'Don't Be Evil' from their corporate code of conduct back in 2018.

[–] some_designer_dude 11 points 8 hours ago (2 children)

Did they replace it with “be as evil as possible; we have a lot of evil-doing to make up for”

[–] Duamerthrax 2 points 3 hours ago

"Be as profitable as possible", but same difference.

[–] Stovetop 7 points 7 hours ago

It's now "Do the right thing" (for the shareholders).

[–] [email protected] 88 points 13 hours ago (2 children)

And so then I say, “Well, that’s not completely the point. There is almost no big organization you interact with that doesn’t have at least some part of it devoted to some monstrous crime. Your phone is made with slave labor, the people who grow your chocolate have never eaten chocolate, your soda is made in factories where villages used to be before armed goons evicted the former residents and killed anyone who wouldn’t leave. If 0.01% of Google’s operation is helping genocide then they’re actually ahead of the curve, because the whole modern world is evil in specific parts of it.”

And then the guy with the sign starts screaming “Yes that is EXACTLY THE POINT!”

Google isn't a local business caught within the system also don't push a poor lifestyle on everyone. We are on lemmy and no money goes to israel here.

no ethical consumption under capitalism

[–] renzev 13 points 8 hours ago

Alternatively: The only ethical consumption under capitalism is eating the rich

[–] [email protected] 6 points 9 hours ago

Well that's the darkest thing I'm going to see this morning.

[–] eran_morad 13 points 12 hours ago

Fucking brutal.

I liked him, but for what he endorsed in Palestine. Bidens garbage.

~~Is the title completely unrelated?~~

~~Or do you legitimately think Google made and paid for this?~~

[–] [email protected] 9 points 12 hours ago

Google does business with Israel's military.

Or did you know that already?

My bad

Took a break from dealing with all the shit Elmo caused at work and I guess I'm just conditioned not to fully read AI blurbs

[–] Wizard_Pope 1 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

I think I just witnessed your edit in realtime. Went from normal comment to crossed out after reading the replies.

[–] givesomefucks 2 points 12 hours ago (2 children)

Yeah, it's best to one line instead of delete so there's context, just never understood why people keep down voting after lol

[–] Wizard_Pope 2 points 11 hours ago

Going with the flock I think. They see downvotes so they just do the same.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 hours ago

I'm seeing the ~~ at each end instead of strikeouts. I use oldsh.itjust.works, that might be why. I need to start processing it as strikeouts in my head, I guess.

[–] Warl0k3 7 points 13 hours ago
[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 hours ago

I'm upvoting the strikeout!!

[–] ObviouslyNotBanana 2 points 12 hours ago

Unintentionally funniest comment I've read today
