Background into. The corona update. With 19 special. Monday to friday on d w a. K. Shift special this time killer drones combat robots and Cyber Security in the military to shoot 0 not to shoot around the world weapon systems are being developed that would let on to official intelligence on so this question can we let an algorithm decide of a life and death. The 0 fighters are currently still in use Artificial Intelligence could soon replace Fighter Aircraft that require the pilot to manually shoot misako. Yes the goals over and all is not true this deal does. The 1st big game changer is the fact that we now have pilotless weapon systems that can be controlled from afar so they dont require a pilot to be on board the Fighter Aircraft was your opinion aircraft manufacturer past tested its 1st unpiloted drones about 2 years ago these drones are a company Fighter Aircraft from inside the cockpit the pilot can control the swarm of drones its a system designed to take some of the pressure off the pilots and protect them so far humans are still of the center of the Decision Making process here across the globe militaries are developing Weapons Systems that see Artificial Intelligence increasingly replace humans. Theres this new aspect that in the future the decision on target selection and combat likely redirected and it would be an algorithm in a computer not a human being making the decision that something new at no point in history has this ever been the case the decision has always been a human one no matter what weapons are used whether it was throwing stones and spears using a crossbow or even dropping by. The Us Military Agency darpa has developed an unmanned ship the sea hunter is equipped with cameras sensors and computers this autonomous robot ship is supposed to detect and pursue enemy submarines so far there are no weapons on board yet the erratic it would be possible in the future Artificial Intelligence could lead to many other changes a team of american researchers and anti killer robots activists has produced this video to warn of the potential consequences the fictional scenario drones are used to eliminate political opponents with the help of Artificial Intelligence and facial recognition the drones hunt student activists the drones independently identify their targets and then carry out targeted assassinations. And their care on the technical side. And much of this will be possible in the near future. Heart of the matter which is also expressed in this video is the fact that these new technologies are allowing us to an extreme extent to distance ourselves from the act of killing a lot more than long range weapons ever could. Basically we could just categorize and let algorithms take care of going into action. So its essentially passing on the act of killing through a computer by the skin think ian. Be used in the future to specifically target and kill people. To franks hour this sort of scenario raises primarily ethical questions i mean this is one very fundamental worry is that a dehumanization of those people that die takes place because nobody has to deal with the fact that theyve died on the battlefield. Instead of the reduced to mere data and numbers which an anonymous Machine Works through wanted to algorithms. That the United Nations theyve been debating a ban on thomas weapons for years now so far unsuccessfully resistance to a ban comes from russia the u. S. And china amongst others the Debate Centers on whether autonomous weapons are reconcilable with International Law critics are worried about a new arms race with un perceivable consequences. As you start to picture and realize that humans are controlling element have completely fallen out of the equation and when you have algorithms that make decisions are being. Decisions on whether or not someone should be attack targeted and if so whether weapons should be. Its definitely not so farfetched to imagine that they are happening at incredible speed and could escalate even quicker. The systems they start shooting at each other without humans doing it themselves and it might even become impossible to oversee whats happening at the speed at which everything unfolds could be just too overwhelming. Ethicists say that decisions over life and death cannot be passed on to machines humans need to take on responsibility and be accountable. Combat robots can kill but they can also protect human life when fighting terrorists for example these remotely controlled weapons are produced by general robotics in israel. The weapon a glock 269 millimeter caliber the shooter the robot 11 kilograms the shooting range 20 kilometers east of tel aviv israel. Of general. Robotics is controlling this robot which looks more like a toy it could be a toy considering its called jogo but this small caterpillar robot is dangerous its being advertised as a lightweight ally in the fight against terrorism and it shoots automatically. This is a grouping of turn around so you see that no human can rich this secures we really when we do competition even with the best shots they cannot reach discussion of groupings and imagine under combat pressure its even harder. The next challenge targeting balloons on command and then shooting them. In the future dont go is supposed to support infantry troops in action. Though its 2020 today almost all the militaries in the world they send humans into a very dangerous area without the humans even knowing whats waiting for them on the other side right now more people are being killed or injured because the special forces dont have time to think because theyre under fire dont go is supposed to provide the time to think in an advertising video the Developers Present how future antiterrorism operations could become more secure look for special forces into robots how fast they have to look around clear the area and if need be shoot. The whole idea is to have to tell most occupied with the all what to give to special forces an advantage. General robotics is one of the leading manufacturers for a remotely controlled weapons one other product they sound the pitbull a portable weapons station that was developed as an anti drone tool amongst other things it can be controlled from this. Safe distance. I feel the system which start if they want to track i can cancel the tracking. And i can reactivate just by pressing the start. And now this is them is tracking they self and i decide if i want to continue tracking or if i want to shoot. Dont go and pit bull use Image Recognition and motion sensors to track the targets technologies that are increasingly being controlled by programs that is self learning and thereby continuously improving in other words Artificial Intelligence. The university of tel aviv with its department of Cyber Security. Isaac ben israel former air force general and m. P. Is an electorate here his knowledge on military theory and Security Policy has led him to being regarded as one of the leading experts on Artificial Intelligence. Music the. Official in their lives is going to be the most dominant the globe of the next 20 years or so in the. The human nature of. Weapon systems such as pit bull dog and have only been made possible through more Intelligence Software faster more accurate control of the weapons through programs means that more jobs can be taken out human hands. There are various different stages of Technology One stage of technology is the other to official encourage and to help the young men make a decision for example you can put Image Recognition so the system can suggest a day older and this person is probably at their always 95 percent because weve checked the facial recognition and it matches our database so this will help support the human to take a decision but your question if now the system will decide that beyond 95 percent or if its 100 percent sure were going to take the decision by itself maybe maybe in the future but we do not support that unlike biological and chemical weapons using Cyber Technology it is not regulated on an International Level and not every manufacturer will take on responsibility for the machines they produce the thought of robots fighting each other one day is not really comforting but history has taught is one thing theres no such thing as a war without human victims. Militaries across the globe are preparing for cyber warfare in the german bund is fair to soldiers are working on ways to ward off Cyber Attacks which strategies do they employ the center for Cyber Operations is located near a bomb near the Computer Systems of the bonders we are are being centrally monitored the i. T. Networks need to function reliably especially for deployment of brought this role is becoming increasingly important for cyber and information command of the art. He has about as many soldiers as the navy. These cyber troops fight off hackers and its a day just as with Industrial Networks in the bundeswehr networks are also continually being attacked and the way you usually react as with measures to guarantee security of information that these are different matters that have been as relevant to protect our own networks and soil whether that really only defending their own networks or actively attacking Foreign Networks the German Government remained silent on this issue but in 2019 a strategic paper was leaked to the public but it stated that there are plans to react with hack attacks in case of a severe attack back south basically retaliations against attackers imputed infrastructure in the most extreme cases servers are supposed to be hacked im disabled we try digging a bit deeper with connell christan pavlik who heads the cyber all over asia and he does not want to reveal any concrete targets but he emphasizes the potential need to be able to actively engage in cyber combat he would have a fruit in abundance there has the skills necessary to the back end of the war networks in this data grab and analyze and to influence networks and change data thats available but is to terrence even effective in cyberspace. They can turn us in cyberspace is generally quite difficult when deterrence is based on being able to assess and analyze the opponent skills in cyberspace however youre very concerned with staying anonymous account not revealing anything about your skills as soon as their skills in cyberspace are revealed then you can start comparing specifically but those types of attacks and switched it to terences controversial often times its not clear whos attacked whom and who to target one of the reasons why germany is specifically interested in defensive Cyber Security and having rigid and stable i t systems.
