MAGIC BULLETS: THE FUTURE OF ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE IN WEAPON SYSTEMS

摘要

The technologies that allow creation of AI weapon systems are inevitable, if not already existent. It is no longer possible to prevent research unique to AI weapons while allowing research into helpful civilian applications to continue, because the remaining research areas are all dual-use. Furthermore, rudimentary but functional autonomous weapon systems can already be created with existing technology. The horse is out of the barn.
