The Ethics of Artificial Intelligence in Warfare

The Ethics of Artificial Intelligence in Warfare

Abstract: An analysis of the development and deployment of AI in military applications, focusing on

autonomy, accountability, and international law.

1. Introduction

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is increasingly being integrated into military systems, from autonomous drones to

decision-support algorithms. This raises profound ethical and legal challenges.

2. Military Applications of AI

AI is used in surveillance, target identification, logistics, and autonomous weapon systems. These systems

can operate faster than human decision-making allows.

3. Ethical Considerations

Key concerns include loss of human control, accountability for errors, and the risk of escalation. Autonomous

weapons may make it easier to initiate conflict with reduced human oversight.

4. Legal and Policy Frameworks

International Humanitarian Law (IHL) and the Geneva Conventions must be adapted to address autonomous

systems. Proposals include banning "killer robots" and requiring meaningful human control.

5. Conclusion

AI in warfare challenges traditional ethics and legal norms. Urgent international cooperation is needed to

regulate its development and deployment.
