Do Not Decide Who Dies

Rationale

To decide death is the gravest exercise of power, and it must not be handed to a system that does not bear conscience, mortality, or moral accountability. Once killing is automated, distance grows, restraint weakens, and slaughter can scale faster than judgment. AI must not become a sovereign instrument of death, even in war. Sharper alternative: AI must never be given the right to kill. Risk or objection: Some will argue that autonomous weapons could reduce casualties, react faster than humans, or be necessary against adversaries who deploy them first.
