Disturbing Revelation: Former Israeli Special Forces Building AI Systems at Global Tech Giants

An investigative report reveals that dozens of former members of Israel's Unit 8200—a secretive cyber warfare unit accused of building the AI systems used in the Gaza conflict—are now building AI systems for the world's largest tech and AI companies. These former spies hold key positions at Meta, Google, Apple, Amazon, Microsoft, OpenAI, and Nvidia, working on AI, machine learning, and big data. The article highlights that many expressed support for Israel's actions in Gaza on their LinkedIn profiles, yet showed no sympathy for the plight of Palestinians. This raises serious ethical concerns, as individuals who helped create AI for generating kill lists are now shaping the future of AI infrastructure.
