We should probably ban autonomous weapons worldwide, NPT-style

not a “probably”, we should definitely ban them, but we sure won’t :(

The US policy had been that any firing of offensive weapons needed a human pulling the trigger (I guess defensive ones like C-RAM/CIWS/whatever have been fine). But according to this article, that’s changed.

Never going to happen. Even if something was signed, everyone would just develop the tech secretly. It’s not like nukes where you need large, special equipment like refineries that investigators can track, and special ores. If you’ve got some nerds with nice graphics cards, you’re off to a good start. Getting more advanced is easy if you produce your own chips, and looks the same as regular consumer demand to anyone suspicious.

We can’t do shit. Warfare is super profitable. Why do you think there are always conflicts and wars… Because people can’t get along? No it’s more about profits from wars, and the power it gives.
