Comment by Nick Mottern

Co-coordinator of the Weaponized Drone Ban Treaty Campaign and peace activist.
We are calling for a treaty to remove all weapons from drones, rather than to ban drones controlled autonomously by AI. This is because all militaries will claim that there will always be a human in ultimate control of AI-augmented drones in spite of the fact that the drone will identify targets using AI, select weapons using AI, and present a human with all elements of the decision to kill using AI. A treaty banning weapons on drones is the only way to stop the drone tsunami.
