Google officials had concerns about potential human rights violations that might be linked to its $1.2 billion contract with the Israeli government before ever even signing the deal, according to documents first reported on by The New York Times today.
The documents date to several months before Google announced the deal in May 2021 and show that the company was worried about whether the contract might be bad for its reputation.
The most profitable part of the deal was $525 million from Israel's Ministry of Defense expected between 2021 and 2028, the Times reports.
Project Nimbus enabled the use of AI tools to analyze and identify objects in images and videos, according to the Times.
