Stop Killer Robots works to ensure human control in the use of force. Our campaign calls for new international law on autonomy in weapons systems. #TeamHuman
@stopkillerrobots.bsky.social🎬 We’re happy to have been involved in "Will We Let AI Kill People?," a new film by Lex International exploring the urgent need to regulate #AutonomousWeapons.
It’s more urgent than ever to launch negotiations on a treaty to #StopKillerRobots.
@stopkillerrobots.bsky.socialOur Head of Policy Elizabeth discusses autonomous weapons and meaningful human control in a recent Voice of Islam programme.

The programme also features @hrw.org’s Bonnie Docherty and @icrc.org’s Jonathan Horowitz.
@stopkillerrobots.bsky.socialWhen AI informs decisions about who lives and dies, what happens to human control?
Meaningful human control requires genuine judgement, scrutiny and accountability — not a human rubber-stamping an algorithm.
This November, states must launch negotiations on #AutonomousWeapons.
@stopkillerrobots.bsky.social“130 governments around the world that support... [an autonomous weapons] treaty...we will be doing everything we can do encourage states to take what really is the next sensible step in this process, before we do end up in those doomsday scenarios.” —@verityc.bsky.social

@stopkillerrobots.bsky.social"More civilian harm, less accountability and a faster slide into riskier, automated warfare.”
That's what's at stake if states do not move toward a treaty to #StopKillerRobots at November's CCW Review Conference
@stopkillerrobots.bsky.social“[A machine] must never have the final say over who lives and who dies.”
Austria’s Foreign Minister warned the UN that increasingly #AutonomousWeapons are already being used on the battlefield.
Governments must ensure humans — not machines — remain in control.

@stopkillerrobots.bsky.social“[AI is] being used to target real people, real ships and real schools, that’s a real problem today.”
#StopKillerRobots' Peter Asaro spoke to @sfgate.com about AI-enabled surveillance, the growing accessibility of dangerous tech, and why regulation needs to catch up.
@stopkillerrobots.bsky.social"[AI is] making lethal recommendations, which don’t appear to receive enough human oversight to prevent atrocities."
States must act now and create legal safeguards to #StopKillerRobots
@stopkillerrobots.bsky.social"Killer Robots should be forbidden. I don't accept the idea that a machine can decide on the life or death of people." —‚ #UnitedNations Secretary General Antonio Guterres
We need a treaty to regulate #AutonomousWeapons now. #StopKillerRobots
@stopkillerrobots.bsky.social🕊️ This International Day of Peace, people around the world are calling for meaningful human control over decisions about the use of force.
Different languages. Different voices. One message:
Less autonomy. More humanity.
#InternationalDayOfPeace #StopKillerRobots #AutonomousWeapons
@stopkillerrobots.bsky.social⬇️ Read @rcw4disarmament.bsky.social's First Committee Briefing book for our entry on #AutonomousWeapons and why states should commit to preserving meaningful human control and urgently start negotiations of a legally binding instrument to #StopKillerRobots
@stopkillerrobots.bsky.socialInvestors have a role to play in shaping the future of #AutonomousWeapons.
➡️ The first step is signing our Investor Statement: www.stopkillerrobots.org/investor-sta...
@stopkillerrobots.bsky.socialThanks to Aldo Bonati, Camille Bisconte de Saint Julien, Sam Jones, Claire Gavini-Jean and moderator Roos Boer for a thoughtful conversation.
@stopkillerrobots.bsky.socialWe discussed investor red lines, dual-use technologies, due diligence — and why a strong international treaty is the missing piece. A clear, enforceable global rulebook would give investors the standards they need to manage risk and avoid complicity in unlawful harm.
@stopkillerrobots.bsky.socialOne year after Stop Killer Robots and Etica Funds launched our Investor Statement on autonomous weapons, we brought leading investors into the room at Geneva during the #CCW to discuss what unregulated autonomy in weapons means for the financial sector.
@stopkillerrobots.bsky.socialStates must turn years of discussion into binding rules that safeguard humanity, uphold meaningful human control and ensure compliance with international laws.
Time is running out, States must act now.
