Google Earth's AI deepfake tool only lasted one day

Google introduced on Thursday a feature in Google Earth that let users edit satellite imagery using text prompts powered by AI, effectively creating deepfakes of real-world scenes. Users such as Digital Digging's Henk van Ess used it to generate controversial images, including refugees near the Mexican border and a bomb crater near a hospital in Gaza. Google shut down the tool later that same day.
