" #AutonomousWeapons systems would in addition create an accountability gap that will not only mean no one will be held responsible for a system’s unlawful action but will also eliminate an important tool for preventing harm."

"We observe a shared and growing unease about the ethical implications of these systems – the core ethical issue lies in one of the defining features of these weapons – their autonomy and the resulting lack of human control over decisions that may involve life and death."
