Google Earth risked ruin with retracted AI tool for making fake satellite pics
摘要
谷歌曾短暂允许用户利用人工智能工具修改谷歌地球中的卫星图像，但因该功能可能助长虚假信息传播而迅速撤回。这一名为Nano Banana 2的AI图像生成器，可基于真实地点生成定制图像，谷歌在推广时曾强调其“植根于现实世界”的特性。然而，用户分享的AI生成示例表明，该工具极易被用于制造误导性内容，引发对虚假信息风险的担忧。
Google briefly allowed anyone to create AI-modified versions of satellite imagery available in Google Earth—before quickly reversing its decision as people shared examples of AI-generated pictures that illustrated the potential for misinformation and disinformation.
There is no shortage of generative AI tools that already allow people to create AI-modified images of real buildings and cities based on user prompts. But Google’s aborted attempt to incorporate its Nano Banana 2 AI image generator as a Google Earth feature made it even easier for anyone to create modified versions of authentic imagery depicting real locations—something that Google boasted about when initially promoting the new feature.
“For the first time, you can generate custom images using Google Earth’s satellite, aerial, and 3D imagery alongside Nano Banana, which creates concepts grounded in the real world,” wrote Bryan Horowitz, product manager for Google Earth, in a company blog post on July 30.
