>The ethics of killing will never be left to AI, but the technicalities of acquiring and prosecuting the target? This is unfortunately completely wrong. Fully autonomous weapons have already deployed for years, and are currently in use on the North/South Korean border. Fully autonomous weapons systems, including drones that use AI to autonomously choose and destroy their targets have been under development for many years. https://www.nato.int/docu/review/articles/2017/07/28/autonomous-military-drones-no-longer-science-fiction/index.html https://www.nato.int/docu/review/articles/2017/07/28/autonom... There's a reason experts are sounding the alarm - because the ethics of killing are being shifted to AI right now. >Kallenborn, an expert in unmanned systems and WMD, describes one type of swarm that he calls an Armed, Fully-Autonomous Drone Swarm, or AFADS. Once unleashed an AFADS will locate, identify, and attack targets without human intervention https://mwi.usma.edu/swarms-mass-destruction-case-declaring-armed-fully-autonomous-drone-swarms-wmd/ https://mwi.usma.edu/swarms-mass-destruction-case-declaring-...
