Excuse me, what?

It means all nations can agree to not unleash AI based weapons on the world. Sadly I don't see this happening.

I think we can assume good fath and the grandparent merely forgot to add "in combat" to that statement, rather than deliberately trying to downplay the use of Zyklon B.

It took the use of poison gas to get countries on board, and some will still use it. Just more carefully.

Would China, Russia, or Iran agree to such a preemptive AI weapons ban? Doubtful, it’s their chance to close the gap. I’m onboard if so, but I don’t see anything happening on that front until well after they start dominating the landscape.

Russia would most definitely not agree to it given that Ukraine is already deploying autonomous drones against it.

Not on the battlefield.
