Israel accused of using AI to target thousands in Gaza, as killer algorithms outpace international law
Briefly

The Israeli army used a new artificial intelligence (AI) system known as Lavender to create lists of human targets for airstrikes in Gaza, resulting in substantial civilian casualties.
The use of AI systems such as Lavender in warfare showcases a concerning trend towards machine-based operations with reduced accuracy and increased civilian impact, as highlighted by reports from various sources.
The Israeli Defence Force denies claims about the AI system's role in targeting terrorist operatives, stating that Lavender is a database meant for intelligence cross-referencing, not an AI system.
Despite denial from the IDF, previous reports indicate Israel's utilization of AI in past conflicts, with mentions of AI-powered warfare victories and the use of systems like Habsora to identify militant targets.
