Google has decided not to renew its contact for a controversial Department of Defense program known as Project Maven, which involved Google helping the US government analyze drone footage using artificial intelligence.

The news, reported today by Gizmodo, was announced internally today by Google Cloud chief Diane Greene at a meeting with employees. The contract allegedly expires in 2019. According to Greene, the company will be announcing a new set of ethical principles with regard to AI and the military next week. Google was not immediately available for comment.
