Spectrum Series Focuses on Issues Posed By Lethal Autonomous Weapons

IEEE Spectrum (Nov. 3) features a series of articles on issues surrounding lethal autonomous weapons, drawn from a Challenges report developed by the IEEE Standards Research Group on Issues of Autonomy and AI in Defense Systems. The four guest articles frame the following questions:

How can we talk about autonomous weapons?
How can we make sure autonomous weapons are used responsibly?
What does “human control” over autonomous systems mean?
Can autonomous weapons be compatible with International Humanitarian Law?
