Google DeepMind resigned, claiming that there was no killer robot on military AI contract. Red Line

Alex Turner, a Google DeepMind AI security researcher, announced his resignation, stating that Google allowed the United States military to use AI on a confidential mission but did not prohibit large-scale surveillance and uncontrolled autonomous weapons in the contract. Turner had previously organized more than 250 staff federations and submitted a 25-page alternative to Google DeepMind CEO Demis Hassans, proposing to join the Human Surveillance and Independent Review Mechanism for military AI, but the proposal was ultimately rejected. He left in June this year. Google stated that it remained opposed to the use of AI for autonomous weapons that lacked adequate human oversight and for domestic mass surveillance, but Turner noted that these commitments were not binding. Google had removed from the AI Principles, as early as 2025, the provision not to develop weapons and surveillance technology。
