"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"

A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

The demonstrations, license, and funding come before any official NATO procurement order or actual combat deployment. Concerns about lethal autonomous weapons are being addressed by a UN expert group. Its recent report concluded that human judgment and control are required to comply with the laws of war; its recommendations will be reviewed in Geneva in November

Looks like they're going to look into this in November

Huh, I will be pleasantly surprised if the same governments whose companies are developing this tech and itching to use it in Ukraine and Palestine support its ban.

I hope it's not governments that make these decisions

Should be judges, game theory experts, activists, NGO reps, ethics philosophers, etc

It is governments which sign the Geneva convention, and the "judges, game theory experts, activists, NGO reps, ethics philosophers, etc" they allow/amplify are ultimately further expressions of those governments.

We come back to "everything is political", which is 100x more true for technocratic entities that claim to just be calling balls and strikes.
