Google has abruptly suspended a new AI-powered feature in Google Earth that allowed users to generate and superimpose artificial intelligence imagery onto real-world satellite maps. The tool was intended for creative exploration but was almost immediately exploited by users to create realistic, fake depictions of bombings, riots, and other scenes of mass destruction. Facing mounting concerns over the potential for misinformation and the ethical implications of realistic fake satellite imagery, the company moved to pull the feature less than a day after its initial rollout.
