You're right it's not an ethical dilemma at all, but your reasons are completely off. All killing of humans by other humans is unethical, regardless of technology. Saying there is a dilemma implies that somehow a human would make killing another human ok. I find the whole tone of this article to be ridiculous...I would love to find an actual discussion in which an ethicist rationalizes war, and if you can't find that then the implication that machines somehow make the situation less ethical is ridiculous.
- Teever 6y ago> All killing of humans by other humans is unethical It's going to be difficult for you to find many people who agree with this assertion. Most people awknowledge the necessity of self defense, and many others who agree with the death or penalty agree with the idea of death as punishment for certain classes of crimes. Now there's an argument to be made about a judicial process being followed or the issue with unintended consequences/blowback but it's a hard sell to your average person that a brutal dictator shouldn't be killed.
