What Are AI Weapons And Why Are Tech Giants Like Google, Microsoft Opposing It? | CRUX

A government-appointed panel in the United States has backed the development of autonomous weapons powered by artificial intelligence (AI) software. The panel, led by former Google Chief Executive Eric Schmidt, on Tuesday concluded two days of public discussion about how the world’s biggest military power should consider AI for national security and technological advancement.
While weapons based on AI which are partially autonomous is not new, but the idea of a fully autonomous weapons have raised concerns around the world. Around 30 countries from around the world who are opposing their use have termed them ‘killer robots'. Notwithstanding the concerns, major military powers like the USA, Russia and China have invested in the development of AI weaponry. The proponents of AI say that it can cut costs, and reduce human causalities and war crimes. But critics say that the technology is still evolving and is prone to errors and biases, and if the development of AI-based weapons remain unchecked, it can even lead to lethal consequences.

AI would seriously reduce the chances of Death of our army personals coz it could be used in most adverse weathers too and in difficult terrains . We need more AI implementation in our Military. *AI is the future*

We can't stop it because it's the future.

Because they want control on this market too, in early 2000's these giants had control, they even do now but the difference is many expertise are present now in AI who can easily compete with these giants.

Summary u need to good at hacking to win the war

[Rishabh-Dev]

Ai machines with guns, patroling around the block? Hell nah!
We aren't ready for this yet

As Einstein one of the smartest men ever said-" Religion without science is blind, Science without religion is stupid" So there needs to be a moral compass for innovation rather than just innovating for personal gain or for the sake of it

[abhilashdas]

AI weapons are the last thing the world needs.

[dograkhalsa]

We need more scientists and engineers (the ones with actual brains and not money) to be directed towards military innovation and missile engineering only then we shall emerge as one of the influential military presence in the world.

I think the MATRIX is better analogy than the terminator series when it comes to AI uprising.

[psb]

Well our group discussion topic became reality😂😂😂

[raghavlahoty]

How does soldiers or machines killing other soldiers or machines solve world problems.

[udith]

I want AI to be our world leader. Enough of left right fightings, we need real solutions. Let's unite and crown skynet as our glorious leader. Long live skynet, long live human race

[dksportstar]

Hey skynet....welcome to your beginning

[skkarrtygoyal]

The best chance of an AI smart enough to come are from these tech giants. Because armies want blindly following soldiers. While tech giants wants creativity and critical thinking AI to replace there workforce.

[vishalbihani]

There always are exceptions in a software which if not handled who knows it might change the mood of the machines to just sweep the humans.

It seems like Machine is the Kalki Avatar.

Now i can watch a real life terminator....

"Weaponizing AI will be a different ball game. Recently Israel used AI UAV to kill Iran's nuclear specialist. You cannot pin the blame on anyone.
