It’s already against the law to murder people.
- jrochkind1 9y agoIt's not in fact against international law or the laws of war to kill people, cause, you know, war. I guess you could think if we can't just get rid of war (which is always terrible), there's no reason to have international laws and agreements limiting certain kinds of killing and other harm as off limits and unacceptable. Apparently our current leaders agree with you.
- robotresearcher 9y agoI deliberately used the word 'murder', not 'kill'. The position of the Canadian government is that the development of autonomous weapons is already illegal under Article 36 of the 1977 Extended Protocol 1 to the Geneva Convention of 1949.
