Google will not renew its controversial Maven contract with the US Defense Department, Gizmodo reports, meaning that the company will no longer develop the AI tools for the Pentagon past next year.

Emails from Google managers obtained by Gizmodo show that the project was intended to be more wide-reaching than Google originally indicated. The company reportedly pitched a “Google-earth-like” surveillance tool, which would allow users to click on a building and “see everything associated with it,” as well as monitor vehicles, people, and large crowds for an entire undisclosed city.
