Thank you to the #StopKillerRobots campaigners who made up our #REAIM delegation last week.👏
Campaigners called for new laws to protect against growing automated harms on the battlefield – both from #AutonomousWeapons and the military AI discussed at REAIM.

As states move toward new international law on #AutonomousWeapons, the military AI weapons discussed at #REAIM must be under the same legal scrutiny.
States must take stock of the harmful trajectory of military AI and ensure that more #AutomatedHarm doesn't come to pass on the battlefield.
