Abstract: The aim of this study is to show how war crimes can occur when using AI-driven autonomous weapon systems and what legal issues arise in the prosecution of these crimes. AI-based weapon systems are capable of making autonomous decisions in combat environments without human intervention. This is particularly relevant in areas such as target identification, execution of attacks and use of lethal force. The article presents how, in these cases, if war crimes are committed, who can be held accountable.
