双语：迫于员工压力，谷歌终止军事合同

　　Google says it will not extend a contract into next year to help the U.S. military analyze drone videos following complaints from company employees.

　　谷歌称，在公司员工投诉后，该公司不会将帮助美国军方分析无人机视频的合同延长到明年。

　　据美国媒体报道称，谷歌母公司Alphabet公司周五向谷歌员工透露了这一决定。这一进展最早是由科技出版物Gizmodo报道的。

　　Google had earlier defended the company’s involvement in the project saying it was limited to helping the military with nonoffensive tasks and said the project would help save lives.

　　谷歌早些时候曾为该公司参与该项目辩护，称该项目仅限于帮助军方执行非进攻性任务，并表示该项目将有助于拯救珍贵的生命。

　　Google says it will soon release new company guidelines related to the ethical uses of AI.
