      Lethal autonomous weapons (LAWs) are a type of autonomous military system that can independently search for and engage targets based on programmed constraints and descriptions.[1] LAWs are also known as lethal autonomous weapon systems (LAWS), autonomous weapon systems (AWS), robotic weapons, killer robots or slaughterbots.[2] LAWs may operate in the air, on land, on water, under water, or in space. The autonomy of current systems as of 2018 was restricted in the sense that a human gives the final command to attack - though there are exceptions with certain "defensive" systems.
      en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lethal_autonomous_weapon
      Leading AI experts, roboticists, scientists and technology workers at Google and other companies-are demanding regulation. They warn that algorithms are fed by data that inevitably reflect various social biases, which, if applied in weapons, could cause people with certain profiles to be targeted disproportionately. Killer robots would be vulnerable to hacking and attacks in which minor modifications to data inputs could “trick them in ways no human would ever be fooled.”

    3:58 For those who dont know, this man right here, is Vasili Arkhipov Chief of Staff of the 69th (nice) Sub Brigade, did not consent to the launch of the nuclear torpedoes, while the 2 officers (Cmd. Savitsky and Pol. Ofc. Maslennikov) consented to the launch of the nuclear torps, Vasili assumed the explosions they heard was just a warning charge, and he was right.
