Comment by Ruben Gallego

Human avatar
U.S. Senator from Arizona who has called for safeguards and human judgment in autonomous weapon systems.
Any revision that compresses testing and evaluation timelines, reduces existing safeguards, or curtails the ability of commanders and operators to exercise human judgment over the use of force risks devastating consequences – including friendly fire incidents and civilian harm in critical allied and partner nations that could jeopardize U.S. access, basing, and overflight rights.
