Munich emerges as hub for AI weapons and autonomous drones #autonomousweapons #drones #Munich

Permission to disagree: the text meant to form the basis for a #treaty on #autonomousweapons, in removing key concepts of human protection -despite the effort of many actors- results from an architecture that only benefits military states

Investors have a role to play in shaping the future of #AutonomousWeapons.

States must turn years of discussion into binding rules that safeguard humanity, uphold meaningful human control and ensure compliance with international laws.

The GGE has concluded its work. Now states must continue their commitment towards achieving a legally binding instrument on autonomous weapons systems. Stop Killer Robots urges states to launch negotiations in November at the 7th CCW review conference. #CCWUN #AutonomousWeapons

Machines must never decide who lives or dies. Yet the anti-personnel prohibitions were absent from the debate. Stronger legal safeguards against digital dehumanisation and automated harm are essential. #CCWUN #AutonomousWeapons

The current text only applies in armed conflict, the provisions are vague and they do not include key concepts such as ‘predictability’, ‘reliability’, ‘explainability’ and ‘traceability’.

They still allow autonomous weapons to identify and kill human beings. #CCWUN #AutonomousWeapons /5

The elements adopted are not enough to provide a comprehensive response to the ethical, humanitarian, legal and security challenges of autonomous weapons. #CCWUN #AutonomousWeapons /4

Regrettably, after three years of painstaking work, important elements of the draft instrument were deleted in the final hours, as highly militarised states pushed their interests over humanitarian protections. #CCWUN #AutonomousWeapons /3

With elements of an instrument agreed, This could be a significant step for international law and the protection of civilians in conflict - if states can turn these elements into a legal treaty and strengthen certain elements during negotiations. #CCWUN #AutonomousWeapons

On Saturday, 5 September, around 3am, the #CCWUN GGE adopted by consensus the “elements of an instrument” on #AutonomousWeapons.

Now they must make that instrument a reality.
