    Genocide in Gaza: Enabled by AI, powered by Big Tech

    The algorithms that Big Tech designed - and the genocide they assisted. The Listening Post explores how Israel’s killing campaign of Palestinians has relied on artificial intelligence to choose its targets.

    The cracks are deepening in the US-Israel alliance

    Six months into Israel’s devastating war on Gaza, the United Nations Security Council has finally passed a resolution demanding a ceasefire. The United States’s abstention marks a pivotal moment in Israel’s increasing international isolation.In the Israeli media, the opposition to the UN vote is near-unanimous and unsurprising. More striking is the lack of interest from American news outlets. The implications this story raises are perhaps a little uncomfortable for them - they hit too close to home.Contributors:Ramzy Baroud - Editor, The Palestine ChronicleArdi Imseis  - Former UNRWA officialDaniel Levy - President, US-Middle East ProjectSarah Leah Whitson - Executive Director, DAWNOn our radar:A New York Times piece has revealed more information about the mass surveillance Israel has deployed on Palestinians in Gaza.
