A Satellite AI Model You Can Actually Use: Allen Institute Opens Up OlmoEarth Embeddings
Allen AI's OlmoEarth Studio can now export numerical fingerprints of any patch of Earth, letting researchers map forests, detect wildfires and track land change with almost no labeled training data.

NASA-Backed GeoAI Package Lets Researchers Run Satellite Analysis With a Few Lines of Python
A free, open-source tool aims to bring AI-driven mapping and satellite image analysis to scientists who have no machine-learning background, with funding from NASA and the U.S. Geological Survey.

Google Pulls Its AI Image-Editing Tool from Google Earth After Users Faked War Zones and Border Scenes
A feature that let anyone repaint satellite photos with text prompts lasted less than 48 hours before Google yanked it. Researcher Henk van Ess found no prompts were blocked, generated convincing fake humanitarian crisis scenes over real coordinates, and showed a commercial AI-detection service missed them entirely.

Google Earth's New AI Image Tool Is Already Fooling Fake-Photo Detectors
A researcher typed a text prompt into Google Earth and got a convincing satellite image of 'refugees near the Mexican border'. That is not a good sign.

OlmoEarth Platform Scans an Entire Continent in 30 Hours Using Nearly 1,000 GPUs
The Allen Institute for AI has built a system that can run an AI wildfire-risk model across all of North America in about a day, at a cost of fractions of a penny per square kilometre. Here's what that actually means.
