Re: Autonomous weapons need to be internationally banned.
The box is already open, too late for banning.
With every human advance in technology from the very fist hominid throwing a stone or waving a stick, it has been a fact that any and all new destructive technologies will be taken up, to a lesser or greater degree by any that have the wherewithal.
I am, frankly still amazed that we have so far avoided the MAD scenario, particularly recently with the development of more 'efficient' theatre tactical nukes that many generals consider to 'be far more usable'.
Smart warfare may well turn out to be one of the dumbest things humanity has come up with.
