Part 2/8:
Google has made headlines by reversing its 2018 restrictions on the use of AI technology in areas such as weapons and surveillance. This policy shift indicates a strategic alignment with government interests, reflecting a broader trend among tech companies, particularly in light of evolving political landscapes in the United States.
In 2018, Google faced internal employee protests related to its contracts with the Pentagon, which led to a withdrawal from military engagements. However, in recent developments, it has become apparent that many tech companies have continued their collaborations with government security entities across the globe.
