Google dropped a pledge not to use artificial intelligence for weapons and surveillance systems on Tuesday. And it’s just the latest sign that Big Tech is no longer concerned with the potential blowback that can come when consumer-facing tech companies get big, lucrative contracts to develop police surveillance tools and weapons of war.

Google’s updated AI ethics policy removes its promise that it won’t use the technology to pursue weapons and surveillance.

Google has removed its pledge not to use artificial intelligence for weapons development and surveillance, but its executive said will base AI threats on its continued research.
