Artificial intelligence (AI) makes it possible for machines to learn from experience, adjust to new inputs and perform human-like tasks. Lethal autonomous weapons systems use artificial intelligence to identify and kill human targets without human intervention. Russia, the United States and China have all recently invested billions of dollars secretly developing AI weapons systems sparking fears of an eventual “AI Cold War.”In April 2024 +972 Magazine published a report detailing the Israeli Defense Forces intelligence-based program known as “Lavender.” Israeli intel…

Only some weapons... ... and I think that they should be able to be guided by artificial AND human intelligence - human intelligence first.
@Dry550Independent 6 days6D
There are pros and cons to both sides, A.I. needs to be taken seriously.
A.I. is continuing to become more and more intricate and part of day to day living, some people might have skepticism about the military relying solely on A.I. guided systems but there is a benefit from them I believe, so long as we don’t use A.I. for insignificant tasks, I don’t see why we shouldn’t at least see what the artificial intelligence can do when it comes to national security.
@9LQS9CV 2wks2W
No. Recent trials showed the AI was ruthless, and willing to kill its handlers if it meant completing a mission. I have no desire to create the terminator.
No, because it might not be as accurate and might attack friends but if it is like a auto lock on then maybe.
@9LGL8BR4wks4W
There should be an international treaty and task force to limit the use of A.I. in the military to prevent A.I. from having the ability to command weapons of mass destruction.
@9LGHJKV4wks4W
I am fine with AI being used by our military but, some things need to at least be backed up by a actual person doing something.
@9LGGFRB4wks4W
Absolutely not, at some point we will reach the singularity point and it will be too late. If we advance like this in war it will lead to more war.
@9LGDCYHWomen’s Equality4wks4W
I feel like using these weapons are ok until people who aren’t included in the situation are effected.
@9LGCZRZ4wks4W
Current artificial intelligence technology is still in early development, using them now would risk accidental harms to civilian and infrastructure.
@9LGCZNB4wks4W
Yes, however the AI should be supervised and have to have it's actions approved by a human individual or group before it acts.
@9LGC39W4wks4W
Yes and no because you don't kno0w what could happen ai is not always reliable but could be a helpful source.
I think that if we're going to fight there should not be any assistance from technological advancements however If we don't, other nations will in order to have a advantage over the United States
@9LGB9FKIndependent4wks4W
Yes, but only if used with things such as targeting systems in tandem with a human professional. No weapon should be controlled soley by an AI that chooses who, when, or where to open fire.
@9LG9H9Q4wks4W
i think they should use a.i because there smarter however we shoud try to not give them to much power
@9LG93KY4wks4W
they should work in tandem with the AI. using one over the other can cause human error or problems within the AI itself.
@9LG8Y7S4wks4W
yes but only when artificial intelligence is at its peak and will be the least likely to malfunction and or make mistakes
@9LG7G924wks4W
the use of guided weaponry should be restricted and used less on and in civilian populated areas, however they should be used in the battlefield to restrict human casualties. weaponry should be guided by people and if they're guided by people at a distance if need be but using AI to guide weaponry should pose restrictions based on who its used on, where its used, if its safe to use, ect.
@9LG65NM4wks4W
No, because current AI technology can be unpredictable and errors that could happen would be devastating.
@9LFY3QH4wks4W
Sure, but only if funded well and tested many times to make sure they work well and won't cause issues
@9LFWLG64wks4W
No and NEVER, weapons should ALWAYS, ALWAYS be used and handled by Human Beings. Movies and past events have proven again and again that AI should NEVER EVER be used in anything really, but ESPECIALLY weapons.
@9LFWJ2FConstitution4wks4W
Yes, but they shouldn't be able to think for themselves, they should just follow the command on where to go, but also know if they messed up, or if the missile is damaged, or any of the above.
No, because there is room for failure in the intention of said AI's programming along with an override.
@9LFW34W4wks4W
NO! AI is not the solution to everything, and it is not a reliable source of information or solutions to a problem, if you are programming a missile to know where it is and where it isn't that's fine but if you want AI to practically run the Military and to an extent the government then you are setting us up for failure and our downfall.
@9LFV9QBRepublican4wks4W
for some things yes other things no. I think missiles and icbms yes but aviation vehicles like planes and helicopters no.
@9LFTS4J4wks4W
Yes, but this artificial intelligence should be an aid, not the end all, be all. There should still be human involvement in the use of weaponry.
@9LFSZGP4wks4W
Yes and no we have to manage who, what, and how these AI weapons are being controlled because it can be useful but again it can get out of control.
@9LFRY89Independent4wks4W
Yes, but only when the artificial intelligence is completely ready and foolproof, and it shouldn't be used for all weapons.
@9LFRCDL4wks4W
El crear una Nueva inteligencia para armas Seria completamente una locura por que estariamos enfatizando El crear Nueva Guerras aun que fueran usadas para defensa
@9LFQZ794wks4W
Maybe, that's like fighting a war with technology not people--which I am on board with but at the same time wars are a people issue not a technology issue and there is no point in a war where you loose nothing but fake intelligence.
@9LFQ9924wks4W
Yes, but only when the technology gets more accurate along with having a human along side it to make sure everything run smooth.
@9LFLJKF4wks4W
as long as it has been well tested and we know for a fact it wont turn on us and try and kill us like that one movie.
@9LFLJC6Republican4wks4W
In some instances, they are beneficial; however, in the majority of cases, AI should not be used in the military.
@9LFLF384wks4W
Possibly for certain tasks but none that actually interfere with humans. AI could be used for defense but not for actual shooting.
@9LFL4F2Republican4wks4W
yes, to an extent because if AI takes over, people will be out of a job and will not be able to fight for their country
So long as it's tested and proved that inaccuracies and miscalculation should be fine, then sure. Save human lives and keep our men in safety instead of out in the battlefield where they could be hurt.
@9LFJ3TH4wks4W
Well this would help the safety of soldiers and put less people on the field but what if machines go wrong and cause more distructions and conflict and or when they are very updated they could turn against us yk.
@9LFJ2LHRepublican4wks4W
I believe we should implement it under certain causes because the world is becoming more advanced every day.
@9LFHGYYRepublican4wks4W
The military gets a lot of money poured into it so I'm pretty sure that if they decided to let AI guide them they would be safe.
@9LFFLVH4wks4W
Only if the AI was tested multiples times to be secured and not hacked by a foreign enemy who wants to destroy America.
@93XKLHN 4wks4W
Yes, as long as there is always a human in the loop that makes the final judgement on the use of the weapon.
@9LF9SH4 4wks4W
No defense only. Can we make a better shield with the use of aI?Yes, that would be preferable.Can we make a better gun With the use of aI?No that would not be preferable.
@9LF4V594wks4W
probably not man i feel like they would do some mean things to us if we pissed em off yk what im saying?
@9LF2MS94wks4W
Yes, HOWEVER, the AI should be heavily trained and processed first before actually putting it on the field. PERFECT IT FIRST
@9LDY8HS4wks4W
I mean I'm not big on artificial intelligence at all, but if we absolutely need it then yes. Especially because the world is becoming more advanced everyday.
@9LDY5H84wks4W
NO! AI is not the solution to everything and it is not a reliable source of information or solutions to a problem, if you are programming a missile to know where it is and where it isn't that's fine but if you want AI to practically run the Military and to an extent the government then you are setting us up for failure and our downfall.
@9LDX2PX4wks4W
I think this will eventually happen in the future but right now artificial intelligence is still new and should be further developed before use in the military.
@9LDT7Q34wks4W
Depends on the machinery or weapon. Heavy equipment like jets and tanks no, but kamikazi drones yes.
@igeryuIndependent 4wks4W
Not until we can be 100% confident that only intended targets will be harmed, even if that is not attainable anytime soon
no because then any other country or would be able to use this tech in wars all far in war you could make the weapons have facial recognition and make it so they have there own customisation so they dont pick up each others weapons and make it explode if not the operation of said weapon
@9LDLDZLLibertarian4wks4W
Let the military do what they do. They know what they are doing. If they think it’s smart then yes, if not no.
