Ngemva kokwengeza isici sokuhlela izithombe nge-AI ku-Google Earth, i-Google yasikhipha ngokuphuthuma kungakapheli amahora angu-24. Lesi sici sisebenzisa imodeli yezithombe i-Nano Banana 2 yakwa-Gemini. Abasebenzisi babedinga kuphela ukufaka umyalelo wombhalo ukuze baguqule izithombe zezindawo eziku-Google Earth.
Lesi sici sasheshe sasetshenziswa kabi ngemva kokwethulwa. Umcwaningi we-AI u-Henk van Ess wakhiqiza izithombe eziningi zesathelayithi ezingamanga, ezicishe zibonakale njengezangempela, kusukela emakamu ababaleki emngceleni we-Mexico ne-United States kuya ezikhungweni zenuzi ezise-Iran.
Ngemuva kwalokho, umkhulumeli we-Google washicilela isitatimende ku-X mhla zingama-31 wathi: “Ochwepheshe emkhakheni we-geospatial basebenzise lesi sici ukwenza imisebenzi eminingi ewusizo, kodwa abanye babelane ngezithombe-skrini zezithombe ezikhiqiziwe, futhi okunye okuqukethwe kubonakala kwephula izinqubomgomo zethu. Ngakho-ke, ngenkathi sakha izindlela eziqinile zokuphepha, sizosisusa lesi sici ku-Google Earth.”
I-Google igcizelele ukuthi zonke izithombe ezikhiqizwe yi-AI zine-watermark, futhi azange zifakwe kokuqukethwe kwamamephu e-Google Earth okungabukwa umphakathi.
I-Google akuyona ukuphela kwenkampani esanda kwethula isici se-AI ngokushesha, yabe isisihoxisa ngokushesha. Ngokolwazi lwe-IT之家, i-Meta yethula i-Muse Image mhla ziyi-7 kuJulayi, ivumela abasebenzisi ukuthi basebenzise izithombe ezikuma-akhawunti e-Instagram omphakathi wabasebenzisi abadala ukuze bakhiqize izithombe nge-AI, ngaphandle uma umnikazi we-akhawunti esevale le mvume mathupha. Kungakapheli isonto isici sethulwe, i-Meta yasihoxisa futhi yavuma ukuthi kulo mzamo “ayizange ibeke imingcele ngendlela efanele”.
