"AI-Driven Targeting: Israel's Use of Artificial Intelligence in Gaza Conflict"

TL;DR Summary
Israeli military reportedly used an AI-assisted system called Lavender to identify Gaza targets, drawing up kill lists of as many as 37,000 targets with an error rate of about 10 percent, leading to civilian deaths. Critics argue that the use of AI targeting violates international humanitarian law and constitutes war crimes, with reports suggesting that for every junior Hamas operative marked, it was permissible to kill up to 15 or 20 civilians. Israel is also reportedly trying to sell these tools to foreign entities.
