their goal should be how to circumvent it or protect against it because no government is truly going to give it up. As the technology progresses there will more and more decisions removed from people to the point where what we think the line is today is just ho hum by then.

Nuclear bombs, land mines, biological weapons and so on. No doubt there will always be a Syria or North Korea that uses AI-controlled weapons anyway, but I think civilised countries could avoid them, at least while we have the military advantage.
