The Legality and Accountability of Autonomous Weapon Systems

  • Categories: Law

By adopting a multi-disciplinary approach, this book provides a comprehensive analysis of the legality of the use of autonomous weapons systems under international law. It examines different arguments presented by States, roboticists and scholars to demonstrate the challenges such systems will create for the laws of war. This study examines how technology of warfare seeks to increase the dissociation of risk and communication between weapons and their human operators. Furthermore, it explains how algorithms might give rise to 'errors' on the battlefield that cannot be directly attributed to human operators. Against this backdrop, Dr Seixas-Nunes examines three distinct legal frameworks: the distinction between the legality of weapons and the laws of targeting; different mechanisms of individual accountability and the importance of recovering the category of 'dolus eventualis' for programmers and technicians and, finally, State responsibility for violations of the laws of war caused by weapons' software errors.

Do Prefácio: ?A dissertação de doutoramento que agora é publicada, com o título de ?A obrigação de indemnizar das entidades adjudicantes. Fundamento e pressu postos?, foi elaborada sob a eficaz orientação do (...) Prof. Doutor João Caupers. O tema escolhido é de grande atualidade e tem a maior importância teórica e prática. O método jurídico adotado é rigoroso. (?) Contrariando com argumentos válidos uma ou outra tentativa, entre nós, de tudo reconduzir ao direito civil, Vera Eiró foi capaz ? por entre o emara nhado das diretivas comunitárias, da sua boa ou má transposição, ou não transposição, para a ordem jurídica portuguesa, da abundante doutrina estrangeira e da escassa doutrina jurídica portuguesa, bem como da influente jurisprudência comunitária ? de descortinar uma dualidade de fundamentos da obrigação de indemnizar a cargo das entidades adjudicantes por violação de disposições reguladoras do procedimento de adjudicação (?).?

O tema da IA no Direito Penal evolui continuamente, a exigir atualização permanente. O Volume III abre com um «dicionário» que traduz termos técnicos da ciência da computação e da tecnologia da informação para o âmbito jurídico e, na via dos anteriores volumes, integra estudos que retomam e aprofundam problemas de atribuição de responsabilidade e compliance, designadamente quanto a proteção de dados e investigações internas, interrogam o significado da presunção de inocência e discutem, em novos cenários, a função da IA de apoio (ou substituição?) dos órgãos policiais e de administração da justiça e a questão – de cruel atualidade - da utilização de armas autónomas mortíferas em teatro de guerra. Toma-se já em conta, a propósito de várias questões, tais como as relacionadas com o policiamento preditivo, o Regulamento (UE) 2024/1689, de 13 de junho de 2024.

The Fall of the University of Cape Town

Destructive forces have been eroding the University of Cape Town, Africa's leading university. This book tells the sad, true tale of what has been transpiring. It is a saga of lunacy, criminality, pandering, and identity politics. The mad and the bad - the deranged, deluded, the depraved - have been granted endless latitude in bullying and abusing others. The decline began in 2015 with the Rhodes Must Fall protest that resulted in the offending statue's removal within a month, and which spawned similar protests abroad. Emboldened by their local success, the protestors issued new and ever-increasing demands later that year and then again in 2016 and 2017. Their methods also became criminal - including intimidation, assault, and arson. The university leadership capitulated to this behaviour, and this fostered a broader and now pervasive toxic environment within the institution. These developments offer important lessons for universities around the world that are yielding to the forces of a faux "progressivism".

War

A Boston Globe-Horn Book Honor Book An award-winning, stunningly illustrated, sober depiction of war. A recipient of the prestigious Nami Concours prize, this remarkable book of striking, often surreal illustrations and sparse prose reveals the many sides of war: where it comes from, how it creeps up on us, and how it destroys everything in its wake. This evocative and bold work is an excellent resource for educators in facilitating difficult yet necessary discussions about wars that continue to be fought around the world. As Deborah Ellis, author of the Breadwinner series, says: “If children are tough enough to be bombed and starved, they’re tough enough to read about it.” An Aldana Libros Book, Greystone Kids

Expounding on the results of the author's work with the US Army Research Office, DARPA, the Office of Naval Research, and various defense industry contractors, Governing Lethal Behavior in Autonomous Robots explores how to produce an "artificial conscience" in a new class of robots, humane-oids, which are robots that can potentially perform more et
