 il medesimo giornalista aveva già scritto su temi simili in novembre 2023:
Abraham, Yuval. «‘A Mass Assassination Factory’: Inside Israel’s Calculated Bombing of Gaza». +972 Magazine, 30 novembre 2023. https://www.972mag.com/mass-assassination-factory-israel-calculated-bombing-gaza/.
+972 Magazine è un'iniziativa giornalistica congiunta israelo-palestinese, che riporta alla mente Giancarlo Siani, quando parlava di giornalisti giornalisti

sul tema dei sistemi di IA che guidano (? decidono!) le azioni militari è uscito un libro anonimo a cura di un alto ufficiale israeliano:
Y.S., Brigadier General. The Human-Machine Team: How to Create Synergy Between Human and Artificial Intelligence That Will Revolutionize Our World. Independently Published, 2021.
che in sostanza espone i presupposti teorici e progettuali di ciò che gli articoli di Abraham descrivono.
lo sto leggendo. se anche qualcun altro lo facesse, poi ne parliamo.
perché mi pare che questo libro porti il discorso sull'IA in territori a cui non avevamo mai pensato, tutti presi da altri aspetti più evidenti/appariscenti.

‘Lavender’: The AI machine directing Israel’s bombing spree in Gaza

The Israeli army has marked tens of thousands of Gazans as suspects for assassination, using an AI targeting system with little human oversight and a permissive policy for casualties, +972 and Local Call reveal.

By Yuval Abraham

April 3, 2024

In 2021, a book titled “The Human-Machine Team: How to Create Synergy Between Human and Artificial Intelligence That Will Revolutionize Our World” was released in English under the pen name “Brigadier General Y.S.” In it, the author — a man who we confirmed to be the current commander of the elite Israeli intelligence unit 8200 — makes the case for designing a special machine that could rapidly process massive amounts of data to generate thousands of potential “targets” for military strikes in the heat of a war. Such technology, he writes, would resolve what he described as a “human bottleneck for both locating the new targets and decision-making to approve the targets.”

Such a machine, it turns out, actually exists. A new investigation by +972 Magazine and Local Call reveals that the Israeli army has developed an artificial intelligence-based program known as “Lavender,” unveiled here for the first time. According to six Israeli intelligence officers, who have all served in the army during the current war on the Gaza Strip and had first-hand involvement with the use of AI to generate targets for assassination, Lavender has played a central role in the unprecedented bombing of Palestinians, especially during the early stages of the war. In fact, according to the sources, 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.”
