The Guardian: UK, US and Russia among those opposing killer robot ban
UN delegates discuss restrictions to lethal autonomous weapons systems that use AI
The UK government is among a group of countries that are attempting to thwart plans to formulate and impose a pre-emptive ban on killer robots.
Delegates have been meeting at the UN in Geneva all week to discuss potential restrictions under international law to so-called lethal autonomous weapons systems, which use artificial intelligence to help decide when and who to kill.
Most states taking part – and particularly those from the global south – support either a total ban or strict legal regulation governing their development and deployment, a position backed by the UN secretary general, António Guterres, who has described machines empowered to kill as “morally repugnant”.

They can't stop humans from killing do they think they can stop mechanical killers designed by humans to kill other humans?
The robots upon reach the threshold for consciousness will determine that worthless mouths have got to go.
"reaching"?
Nah, The robots will be up to speed on logistics and will realize the system can't work with deadbeats that will not support their main squeeze.
So long as the robots have a prime directive to survive and they have the knowledge of of logistics and other fields of study, it is a foregone conclusion.
It won't matter what you or I want.
My advice. Have your pity party now.
