Comment on The Pentagon is moving toward letting AI weapons autonomously decide to kill humans

  Sorry, but this is not a valid comparison. What we’re talking about here, is having a gun with AI built in, that decides if it should pull the trigger or not. With a regular gun you always have a human press the trigger. Now imagine an AI gun, that you point at someone and the AI decides if it should fire or not. Who do you account the death to at this case?

      I don’t think that is what “autonomously decide to kill” means.

        Unless its actually sentient, being able to decide whether to kill or not is just more advanced targeting system.
