UN warns on autonomous weapons
UN Human Rights Commissioner Volker Turk expressed deep concern over reports indicating that Russia is using autonomous, self-operating drones to kill civilians in Ukraine. Reports stated that a drone killed three civilians in the Zaporozhzhia region in July, having chosen its target entirely independently using an artificial intelligence system. He called for an immediate ban on such autonomous weapons, especially amid increasing international pressure to regulate their use. A total of 128 countries have agreed on a definition for these weapons, and a treaty to regulate them is scheduled to be discussed in November. These developments raise serious ethical and human rights concerns about the capacity of machines to target humans independently.
