Africa’s Sahel region is engulfed by violence, and now there are fears that the conflict could take another bloody turn.

    Ok so we ban them, and some incel terminally online hacker on steroids turns 20 arduinos into bombs.

    I agree killer robots are dangerous and ethically problematic, just I don’t think banning them will keep asshats from making them, including on large scale.

    China could pump them out by the billions and we’d probably not know till they were deployed.

        I’m pretty sure that anti-human AI is basically a guarantee at some point.
