Convergences in state positions on human control
This paper presents an examination of convergences in state positions on human control in the context of autonomy in weapons systems.
About Automated Decision Research
Automated Decision Research tracks state support for a legally binding instrument on autonomous weapons systems and conducts research and analysis on responses to autonomy and automated decision-making in warfare and wider society. Autonomous weapons systems have been actively debated at the United Nations since 2013, and states increasingly agree that new international law is needed.
State positions
Our state positions monitor contains individual country profiles with short summaries of each state’s position on negotiating a legally binding instrument on autonomous weapons systems, and on each state’s engagement on autonomous weapons systems within relevant international fora.
