The debate on the development and deployment of lethal autonomous weapon systems (LAWS) as an emerging technology is of increasing importance, with discussions stalling and technological development progressing. Monitoring the progress of increasingly autonomous weapons systems in civilian and military use [1] as well as regulating possible autonomous systems early on is demanded by civil society actors, like the Campaign to Stop Killer Robots and the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC), while nation states follow a variety of interests and strategies, showing little room for consensus on central terms and questions [2], [3]. This article therefore sheds light on the work of the Group of Governmental Experts (GGE) of the UN Convention of Certain Conventional Weapons (CCW). The CCW, offering an arena for international cooperation, has dedicated itself to the purpose of finding common ground with respect to an understanding of LAWS, as well as to the necessary degree of human control. From an ethical perspective, the concept of Meaningful Human Control (MHC) supports a human-centric approach. Several IEEE projects, series and publications [4] are dedicated to this prioritization, especially regarding civilian use. As autonomous technology is increasingly at the center of contemporary military innovations, questions of (human) agency and responsibility in warfare have become even more pressing [5]. As stressed by the United Nations Institute for Disarmament Research (UNIDIR), the concept of MHC may prove useful in the context of development and use of (semi-) autonomous weaponry [6].

致命自主武器系统的有意义的人类控制:CCW 辩论及其对 VSD 的影响

关于作为新兴技术的致命自主武器系统 (LAWS) 的开发和部署的辩论越来越重要,讨论停滞不前,技术发展仍在继续。民间社会参与者要求监测越来越多的民用和军用自主武器系统的进展 [1] 并尽早监管可能的自主系统,例如制止杀手机器人运动和红十字国际委员会 (ICRC) ,而民族国家遵循各种利益和战略,在核心术语和问题上几乎没有达成共识的空间 [2]、[3]。因此,本文阐明了联合国特定常规武器公约 (CCW) 政府专家组 (GGE) 的工作。CCW 为国际合作提供了舞台,致力于在理解 LAWS 以及必要程度的人类控制方面找到共同点。从伦理的角度来看,有意义的人类控制 (MHC) 的概念支持以人为中心的方法。若干 IEEE 项目、系列和出版物 [4] 致力于这一优先事项,特别是在民用方面。随着自主技术越来越成为当代军事创新的中心,战争中的(人类)代理和责任问题变得更加紧迫 [5]。正如联合国裁军研究所 (UNIDIR) 所强调的那样,MHC 的概念在(半)自主武器的开发和使用的背景下可能被证明是有用的 [6]。
