The International Committee for Robot Arms Control (ICRAC) is committed to the control and regulation of the proliferation of armed robots throughout the world
As its foreign minister told our coordinator @marywareham@HRW last September, #Japan will convene “an international conference in 2020 to create international rules on weapons using artificial intelligence.” https://t.co/ioiiiEqe0D @MofaJapan_en@killerrobotjp

“I am in favour of banning Autonomous Weapons”
"we are against weapons, autonomous weapons, that can have the right to choose targets and kill people without human interference.

The official delegates of one country discussed that a lady member of the delegation “had heard horrors from @BanKillerRobots and told that it was necessary to advocate for a ban of #killerrobots.” They had the machismo summary-“she went crazy because we (men) weren’t here”
An excellent article by a marine veteran who killed as a sniper: @JarheadSwoff (hope its the right one;
“when you rely on a myth of technology and distance killing to build a rationale for easy war, your country will lose its soul.”
@BanKillerRobots@icracnet
“We allow technology to increase moral distance; thus, technology increases the killing. More civilians than combatants die in modern warfare, so technology increases worldwide civilian murder at the hands of armies large and small” https://t.co/hBYtAURuII
@WBGU_Council Obviously we fully agree with “The use of fully automated autonomous weapon systems shall be prohibited.” As that is the goal of the @BanKillerRobots campaign. But you might want to drop “automated” as it is redundant in the sentence.
Thank you.
