Paragraph 9
Paragraph 9
9. Calls on states to carry out an assessment of how autonomous military devices have contributed to their national security and what their national security can gain from AI-enabled weapon systems, in particular as regards the potential of such technologies to reduce human error, thus enhancing the implementation of IHL principles; reminds that any given LAWS or weapon with a high degree of autonomy could malfunction on account of badly written code or a cyber-attack perpetrated by an enemy state or a non- state actor; calls on Member States to clearly define and communicate the expected economic, diplomatic and military consequences third actors engaging in cyber-attacks against European weapons with a high degree of autonomy will face; believes that the expected reaction must be credible and severe enough to prevent such actions caused by hostile states and other actors;

Draft opinion
Paragraph 10
Paragraph 10
10. Calls on the HR/VP, in the framework of the ongoing discussions on the international regulation of lethal autonomous weapon systems by states parties to the Convention on Prohibitions or Restrictions on the Use of Certain Conventional Weapons (CCW), to help streamline the global debate on core issues and definitions where consensus has not been reached, in particular as regards concepts and characteristics of AI-enabled lethal autonomous weapons and their functions in the identification, selection and engagement of a target, application of the concept of human responsibility in the use of AI-enabled systems in defence, and the degree of human/machine interaction, including the concept of human control and judgment, during the different stages of the lifecycle of an AI-enabled weapon; stresses the need to urgently speed up such discussions at CCW and possibly other fora in order not to miss the moment in which the international community could have regulated this ongoing revolution in military affairs; reminds its 12 September 2018 call for the urgent development and adoption of an EU common position on lethal autonomous weapon systems and for an international ban on the development, production and use of lethal autonomous weapon systems enabling strikes to be carried out without meaningful human control.

Draft opinion
Paragraph 10 a (new)
Paragraph 10 a (new)
10a. Acknowledges, that modern arms- race dynamics between major military nation states in the development of lethal autonomous weapon systems are outpacing the advance and effective, universal application and enforcement of common rules and legal frameworks, because the development and deployment of these systems are classified and nation states have an inherent interest in creating the fastest and most effective offensive capabilities, irrespective of current and potential future legal frameworks or principles;

Paragraph 10 b (new)
10b. Calls on all UN Security Council Members to classify armed, fully autonomous drone swarms as Weapons of Mass Destruction (WMD) because of their degree of potential harm and innate deficiencies to fully differentiate between military and civilian targets; believes that effective non-proliferation enforcement of these and any future offensive AI-enabled WMD technologies is paramount to global security;
