Google Maps removed AI-altered climate change images by environmental activists, citing policy violations.

Google Maps has deleted AI-altered images of Austrian landmarks by environmental activists to show potential climate change impacts. The images, created by the group Letzte Generation, depicted the river Danube and Austrian lakes dried up and snowless Alpine peaks, as if taken in 2070. Google removed the photos, stating they violated its policies prohibiting content that is not based on real experience or does not accurately represent a location.
