I don’t think they’re refusing all military involvement. Autonomous-decision making is the problematic part.

  The US military has deployed fully autonomous weapons systems since 1979. If you're worried about that then you're a little late.

    It seems weird to equivocate the capabilities of "ai" in 1979 to what we have now; clearly it is on a different level.

      Really? Autonomous weapons systems hold a lot of potential but as of today they haven't been very useful in real operations.
  • tokioyoyo 8mo ago
    Yes, but we both know this is not the same kind of “autonomous weapons”.
    • nradov 8mo ago
      No, I don't know that at all. The differences so far are only incremental. There is the potential for another revolution in military affairs due to autonomous systems but so far it hasn't actually arrived.
