The Pentagon is accelerating the "Replicator" initiative, aiming to deploy thousands of autonomous drones and systems by 2026 to stay competitive with China.
This initiative focuses on rapidly expanding AI attack and defense drones. While officials claim that humans will retain control, experts foresee full autonomy becoming inevitable in the coming years.
Concerns persist that the pace of AI development may outstrip the military's ability to thoroughly test these systems before deployment.
The advancement of lethal and autonomous AI in warfare raises significant ethical and moral questions, demanding careful consideration and oversight.
