( Code Pink ) –
The Israeli online magazine +972 has published a detailed report on Israel’s
use of an artificial intelligence (AI) system called “Lavender” to target
thousands of Palestinian men in its bombing campaign in Gaza. When Israel
attacked Gaza after October 7, the Lavender system had a database of 37,000
Palestinian men with suspected links to Hamas or Palestinian Islamic Jihad
(PIJ).
