Autonomous Weapon Systems:Dangerous Killer Robots or Smarter and Less-Harmful Warfare?

The motion under debate will be:“Should there be an absolute ban on autonomous systems capable of using lethal force?” Two key speakers will argue for and against the motion, and respond to each other’s presentation. This will be followed by a discussion session with the audience, and a public vote.

 

CIS Affiliate Scholar Peter Asaro will be arguing for a ban.
