The Governance Of AI-Driven Systems For The Military

Year: 2026

Type: article

Abstract: The integration of artificial intelligence (AI) into military domains, particularly in Lethal Autonomous Weapons, raises significant ethical and legal concerns in a contested and incomplete normative framework. This paper critically examines these challenges to assess the adequacy of existing legal norms and ethical frameworks governing the deployment of autonomous and semi-autonomous systems. The paper examines the implications of autonomy, accountability, and human control in lethal decision-making. Building on this analysis, the paper explores mitigation strategies, including meaningful human control, system design constraints, and life-cycle oversight.
