Abstract: Militaries around the world are racing to build robotic systems with increasing autonomy. What will happen when a Predator drone has as much autonomy as a Google car? Should machines be given the power to make life and death decisions in war? Paul Scharre, a former Army Ranger and Pentagon official, will present ideas developed in his book, Army of None: Autonomous Weapons and the Future of War, that won the 2019 Colby Award and was named one of Bill Gates’ Top 5 Books of 2018. He will explore the technology behind autonomous weapons and the legal, moral, ethical, and strategic dimensions of this evolving technology.
