"AI Targeting: Israel's Military Use of Advanced Technology"

The Israeli military used an AI-powered database called Lavender to identify 37,000 potential Hamas targets during the conflict in Gaza, with intelligence sources claiming that large numbers of Palestinian civilians were permitted to be killed. The use of AI in warfare has raised legal and moral questions, with the military's targeting processes being relaxed and pre-authorised allowances for civilian casualties imposed. The IDF has stated that its operations were carried out in accordance with international law, but experts have expressed alarm at the acceptance of high collateral damage ratios.
