DISEC: Autonomous Weapons
In an era of unparalleled technological advancement, Autonomous Weapon Systems (AWS) have increasingly been in conversation amongst the UN. Although they may be able to function as efficient methods of defense with their ability to independently identify and attack targets without human interaction or soldiers in their stead; such capabilities also open the door for unwarranted deaths and/or complications due to the absence of a human operator to make an informed judgement. As advancements continue to happen, outlining rules and regulations for the use of AWS is imperative to sustain international stability pertaining to defense mechanisms. In this committee, delegates will collaborate to reform and propose solutions concerning the regulation of AWS; working together to yield an efficient resolution concerning the conflict presented.
