Autonomous lethal weapons pose a grave danger to humanity and imperil the very ethics of warfare. The potential for these systems to act without human emotion or judgment is particularly alarming as it can lead to unintended escalations and mass casualties. Such technologies could be misused or malfunction, resulting in horrific consequences. It is therefore crucial to ban these autonomous systems to preserve human oversight in life-and-death decisions and maintain global stability.

I believe AI systems, especially those with significant capabilities, must have interpretable decision-making processes. This is crucial for ensuring accountability and ethical use, as well as understanding their potential impact on society. Transparency in AI can help prevent misuse and align these systems with human values.
