Killer Robots are a #HumanRights issue.

Earlier this month, at a series of #StopKillerRobots regional briefings in New York, @hrw.org'S Bonnie Docherty outlined the four key ways that #AutonomousWeapons contravene human rights ahead of the first #UNGA meeting on Human Rights on 12 and 13 May.

Defence companies are making unattainable promises about the effectiveness and safety of #AutonomousWeapons
Don’t believe the hype.

“#AutonomousWeapons can neither promote peace nor safeguard democracy, regardless of the marketing slogans. What they can do is enact large scale accelerated systematic violence.”

5/22 — AI weapons are coming regardless. Ethical debates are "theatrical" and a waste of time.

"If we don't do it, someone worse will" isn't a moral framework.

It's the logic behind every arms race in history.

“[A machine] must never have the final say over who lives and who dies.”

Austria’s Foreign Minister warned the UN that increasingly #AutonomousWeapons are already being used on the battlefield.

Governments must ensure humans — not machines — remain in control.

#AI can’t feel empathy. It can’t understand regret.
Placing machines in charge of life & death decisions dehumanizes war and erodes accountability. #StopKillerRobots

🕊️ This International Day of Peace, people around the world are calling for meaningful human control over decisions about the use of force.

Different languages. Different voices. One message:

Less autonomy. More humanity.

The #UnitedNations consultations on #AutonomousWeapons are next week.

This is the first time that all states will have a seat at the table –all voices need to be heard if we are to create a treaty that truly addresses the impacts of #KillerRobots.

#StopKillerRobots – it's time.
