Worried about the risks of robot warfare, some countries want new legal constraints, but the U.S. and other major powers are resistant.
“This is really one of the most significant inflection points for humanity,” Alexander Kmentt, Austria’s chief negotiator on the issue, said in an interview. “What’s the role of human beings in the use of force — it’s an absolutely fundamental security issue, a legal issue and an ethical issue.”

I foresee a shift in future weapons that will make super-expensive weapons such as F35 obsolete and a waste of national resources. Very advanced cheaper and armed sophisticated drones will be the ones to dethrone F35.

So much of military strategy throughout history is about attempting to remove "the human" from the battlefield as much as possible--via military conditioning, ect.,--and we're finally achieving it with tech, but imagine if that weren't the goal. War should never be "easier"!

If an AI-controlled drone wrongfully killed someone, who should be held responsible?

Eventually, the AI will want to make decisions for themselves.

AI's should be unarmed and kept far away from any and all situations where they could cause harm.
The fact that humans would create killer drones in order to gain dominance over a country, while so many innocents are dying in a pointless war for the means of expansion when there are better places to get land, is just absolutely disgusting, but the apathy of Biden is very telling of what his presidency really has been.

Poor american people, please prepare yourself for paying double taxes this year, as half of your taxes is NOT going to build a health system for your kids, but it's going to Israel to kill Palestinian babies and women, bombing hospitals and churches.
Be generous!

Making war more unpalatable makes it less likely. Therefore the USA should be light years in front on this tech and have the Ukrainians field test it in real time, free of charge.
@P0llingPlaceArianaDemocrat6mos6MO
This is no longer an esoteric debate. These weapons are close to being battle ready. The war in Ukraine has accelerated this shift. This U.S. Director of National Intelligence. The way war will be fought is changing. Get ready.
