Abstract

type="graphical" xml:id="gpol12186-abs-0002"> There is a small window of opportunity for the US to stop the automation of killing-yielding warfare before mass proliferation occurs. Autonomous weapons will spread not only to other states but also to hostile non-state actors, or tyrants. If drone proliferation serves as a gage of how proliferation of fully autonomous weapons will proliferate, then there is great cause for worry.
