Killer Robots: Warfare's Friend or Foe?

on

Peter Asaro, the director of graduate programs at The New School for Public Engagement’s School of Media Studies, is a killer robot expert, and an active member of the Campaign to Stop Killer Robots, as well as the International Committee for Robot Arms Control. Calling these machines “autonomous lethal weapons systems,” Asaro’s exploration of the ethical issues raised by the technology, as well as what it means for the future of warfare, is the topic of this month’s Research Radio feature, Killer Robots.
