Palestina - Israël

THIS IS TERRIFYING and without a doubt one of the most IMPORTANT pieces of reporting on Gaza, and one of the most disturbing:

Based on whistleblower accounts from within the IDF and six Israeli intelligence officers, who have all served in the army during the current Genocide:

The Israeli army developed an artificial intelligence program known as 'Lavender' to generate KILL LISTS, with no human verification to check the targets selected by the machine: only a “rubber stamp” check of about “20 seconds” just to make sure the AI target is male.

These Intelligence sources claim that the Israeli military officials permitted large numbers of Palestinian civilians to be killed.

The ratio revealed in the report says: 'for every junior Hamas operative that Lavender marked, it was permissible to kill up to 15 or 20 civilians. In the event that the target was a senior Hamas official, the army on several occasions authorized the killing of more than 100 civilians in the assassination of a single commander."

A ratio of 20 civilians killed for one target works out to about 95% civilian deaths.

Its influence on the military’s operations was such that they essentially treated the outputs of the AI machine “as if it were a human decision.”

The army gave sweeping approval for officers to adopt Lavender’s kill lists, with no requirement to thoroughly check why the machine made those choices or to examine the raw intelligence data on which they were based.

At one stage, Lavender identified 37,000 potential targets.

The Israeli army "systematically attacked the targeted individuals while they were in their homes, usually at night while their whole families were present, rather than during the course of military activity."

Israel also developed another automated system called “Where’s Daddy?” used "specifically to track the targeted individuals and carry out bombings when they had entered their family’s residences."

One of the intelligence officers is quoted: “We were not interested in killing Hamas operatives only when they were in a military building or engaged in a military activity. On the contrary, the IDF bombed them in homes without hesitation as a first option. It’s much easier to bomb a family’s home. The system is built to look for them in these situations.”

This industrialized extermination is the likes of which we haven't seen before.

The testimony from the six intelligence officers, all who have been involved in using AI systems, was given to the journalist @yuval_abraham for a report published by +972 Magazine and Local Call

It's a chilling read.
